Follow-up Comment #2, bug #36800 (project make):
Hi Paul,
Thanks for the comment and the workaround with $(shell ...). I knew the back
ticks were interpreted at the rule time by the shell and not at the make
variable assignment time, but it only became a problem when I started using
make 3.82; all the makefiles worked properly in the previous years with the
syntax I gave so I never changed it. I of course was confused at first when I
hit this on an seemingly unrelated issue. You are correct about the overnight
builds and other issues; and I will update the makefile code per your
suggestion.
Thanks a lot!
