It might have something to do with this in Sun's make man page:
Shell commands may be continued across input lines by escaping the
NEWLINE with a backslash (\). The continuing line must also start with a
TAB.
I wasn't making sure there was a tab on the following line. GNU make must
be more tolerant of it missing. nmake, too. And MMK and MMS...
So try the attached patch which extends escape_newlines() by putting
a tab after the newline guaranteeing the next line will be indented.
