Follow-up Comment #1, bug #61328 (project make):

> However, since "foo/" is illegal for anything but a directory it seems
harmless to assume directory. This special case could also be made to apply
exclusively to order-only prerequisites which is where directory dependencies
should be anyway.

It is not clear (atleast to me) what special behavior you mean. Do you mean
that make assumes that any order-only prerequisite is a directory and compares
'foo' as equal to 'foo/', as long as 'foo' is order-only?


Why don't you append a slash?
