A quick reminder, the gnumake 3.81 as part of a normal cygwin install does *NOT* support the drive letters, and thus can't be used.

What do you think: is that confusing?!?  ;)

For the Sun-internal folks, /java/devtools/win32/bin/gnumake.exe is 3.78.1 and *DOES NOT* work on cygwin. The build did work with MKS as of July, but maybe not with the new changes you're proposing.

This binary sums to the same value as the one on cmake.

Hi Kelly,

So I'm trying to work out some jdk7 Makefile performance improvements

Then I discover that the GNU make features I'm using are seriously
broken in GNU make 3.80 and I need 3.81 to get around it. :^(

On Solaris 10 /usr/sfw/bin/gmake (which IIRC comes from the Solaris companion CD) is 3.80.

/java/devtools/sparc/bin/gnumake is 3.78.1

I presume the devtools version will be updated to 3.81 ?

Updating /usr/sfw/bin/gmake seems less clear ...
