Thank you for the suggestion. I had thought of that already as a possible workaround; essentially giving every variable a unique name so that when the rule evaluates and the variable is substituted, there can be no 'overwriting' of variables causing any problems. I was hoping to avoid this though as what you suggest makes the makefile fragments just a little bit messier to write; not much messier but just a tiny bit. But without any other workaround, what you suggest is I think a good alternative. Thank you, and best wishes, Bryan _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
