I've seen a couple of packages that did use @mkdir_p@. Honestly for what concerns Gentoo I think we're better off without either $(mkdir_p) and @mkdir_p@ and get them updated (of course the same does not apply for non-distribution contexts). What is causing us headaches are the portability warnings and the excessive use of -Werror in projects, but that's a different story (for what it's worth, the latest gettext release relies on AM_PROG_MKDIR_P still, which is causing warnings and thus failures with -Werror). -- Diego Elio Pettenò — Flameeyes flamee...@flameeyes.eu — http://blog.flameeyes.eu/
