I understand that ifdef doesn't look at the value, but shouldn't
it still resolve all variable references in its argument? After
all, the final value of the argument shouldn't have a $ anyway,
so it seems like it would be perfectly legit to construct the
argument programmatically.
------------
foo_variable = 1234
prefix = foo
ifdef $(prefix)_variable
p = success
else
p = failed
endif
bah:
@echo $(p): $(prefix)_variable = $($(prefix)_variable)
