Are you sure there wasn't an error further up the build? There are some bugs in 3.81 around error handling and "-include" but I'm not sure if these exact symptoms would be involved. Boris fixed them a week or two ago. I'm working on getting out a release candidate for 3.82, so if you wanted to try the GNU make currently in CVS and see if that worked any better it would be interesting. _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
