Details:
This is a good Makefile (SSCCE example) that nevertheless bombs:
define FUNCTION
target: $1
endef
FUNCTION2 = $(eval $(call FUNCTION,$1))
.EXPORT_ALL_VARIABLES:
all:
echo OK
Now when you make this, you get:
Makefile:5: *** prerequisites cannot be defined in recipes. Stop.
Paul Smith suggested I file this request for enhancement: Make shouldn't be
running eval when expanding variables for export.
