why, the biggest thing that breaks it for me is not runing bash as the shell.
The other shells, sh, csh, ksh, and gnucash don't seem to get along all
that well. Even if it did break, a user having to change a path statement
only takes a few seconds and probably wouldn't be the complete
end of the world. As you've mentioned you could rename /usr/local/bin/make
to /usr/local/bin/gmake or you could cp /usr/ccs/bin/make
/usr/ccs/bin/make.old
and then ln -s /usr/local/bin/make /usr/ccs/bin/make. The big problem with
Unix is if you want to solve a problem, sometimes you have to many
different ways to do it.
