Are you converting to a non-recursive build? I made the transition in one of my projects and there were a few things to keep in mind. 1. All variables are global and can get overwritten in includes. 2. It's best to do everything before including the next makefile. 3. Target-specific variables are the best thing since sliced bread. I'd be willing to look at your patch and try to resolve the confusion you're having. > So far my diff is ~190KB large.
