Why in the world are you arguing with me? Did you look at the patch? Do
you understand what it does??? Have you never seen that construct
before? Do you understand what it does?

Yea, *IF* you have root on the box. Surely you aren't serious in this
suggestion. Sun assumes /usr/ccs/bin/make is theirs, and that it can
handle contructs in their own Makefiles. I would not trust changing
/usr/ccs/bin/make if you use things like /var/yp/Makefile. Other
software authors simularly assume /usr/ccs/bin/make is a certain one --
the stock one. What good comes from breaking what should be a fact?

You aren't solving the problem -- you are masking it. My patches *solve*
the problem.
