As I understand it, when make invokes a process to handle a command and the
process ends, Make learns the exit value from the child process.  Is there a
way to gain access to this exit value?  I have a case where an assembler
returns a code which is valid for <= 4.  Above that value, I want to exit.
Make exits if the value is >0.

foo.o: foo.s strange_as $<; if [ $? -le 4 ]; then true; else false; fi

I believe you might even be able to get away with:

        strange_as $<; test $? -le 4

There might even be a way to combine the two commands into one.
