It is a syntax error (in the POSIX definition of sh) to not provide any value in a for-loop. The behavior of bash 2.05 is correct. In any case, there is no way that make can control the behavior of the shell that it invokes: problems there are not bugs in make itself. If you need to contact the bash folks, there is the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
