Some versions of make don't bother using a shell to execute the commands, they parse them themselves and call exec() directly. In the current development version of CVS, those lines have been modified to start with "##" so they get deleted by automake rather than being copied into Makefile.in and then Makefile, so nuking them is appropriate. I think the same problem also occurs in the doc subdirectory. -Larry Jones It's clear I'll never have a career in sports until I learn to suppress my survival instinct. -- Calvin _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
