[bug #64472] $(CP) is an empty string

[Douglas Silva]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #64472 (project make):

OP here.

Thanks for the explanation about "$(CP)". Now regarding "$(INSTALL)", I'm also
getting an empty string from it, and I wonder why.

In addition,
[https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html#Utilities-in-Makefiles the
docs] say:

> Additional utilities that can be used via Make variables are:
> chgrp chmod chown mknod

But "$(CHMOD)" is also empty. I suppose it cannot be relied upon, based on
[https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Implicit-Variables.html
this page] you showed me. Maybe we could link to it from "Utilities in
Makefiles"?

On the other hand, "$(RM)" is rm -f, as expected.
