I have a system that doesn't have the requisite 'rm' program in
/bin/rm. The Exim make files expect it there. There is a make
variable RM_COMMAND, but it doesn't get used.
Here is a patch to the make files so they use $(RM_COMMAND) and the
user can override it in Local/Makefile.
The bootstrap make file uses rm too, so it has its own setting of
RM_COMMAND and the user has to modify that too.
Though I didn't change the default from /bin/rm, I believe the default
should be "rm", so that the user's PATH gets searched in the
conventional way.
