It sounds very much to me like you are running into a known bug in the CRLF handling of GNU make 3.79.1, where if you had a variable of just the right length bad things would happen but other lengths worked fine.
This was fixed in 3.80, so you might try that version to see if you still have the problem. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
