It looks as if you like to missunderstand....
Neither my makefilesystem not the method proposed by FSF is standard!
If I have to choose between two nonstandard variants, I choose the better.

????? Please write what you mean and don't send miracles!
Star compiles and runs on at least as many OS ad GNU tar does. I don't like
to repeat this constantly only because you are ignoring my statements.

Wrong: you e.g. just restarted this thread by making definitive false
statements that I need to reply.
If _you_ don't like this thread, then don't send constantly false statements
and the thread _will_ be dead.
I definitely _recommend_ you to read the mails from yesterday to see that
people already have aggreed in the fact that this thread only is fed by people
who misunderstand me or _force_ themselves to misiunderstand me.
