This has worked for years. I'm currently using GNU make 4.3. If MAKE is not being set to gmake, then I would expect bootstrap to fail. I plan to run gmake with debugging output, and need to check gmake.info to see how to dump the environment information. > doesn't set it then even recursive configure invocations from gmake > will resort to 'make' > > but then I _think_ that gmake itself sets $MAKE (if it was not set?) for > sub-processes. But maybe only if it thinks its recursive make? I suppose I'll start using the 'MAKE=gmake ..' form or some variation as I use tcsh.
