Can you check it's the root ghc.mk it's complaining about please, by adding a blank line to the start of the file and checking that the line number changes?(just rerunning make -r --no-print-directory -f ghc.mk phase=0 just-makefiles should be enough to get the error again)The problem was definitely reported for the root ghc.mk. The make-3.81 release notes mentioned correcting a couple of errors in make-3.80 related to symbol expansion and continuation lines. I guess requiring make-3.81 is one way to get around this problem. In any case, it appears that the buildbot slave on this machine has run into a similar problem (http://darcs.haskell.org/buildbot/all/builders/tnaur%20x86%20Linux%20head/builds/309/steps/boottestsuite/logs/stdio), so I'll make the make-3.81 install the preferred one on this machine.
If we have a dependency on make 3.81, we ought to check that in configure (and document it). Ian - would you mind doing that? Thanks!
