The error message depends on whatever sending a "false" command to the shell from the end of the $(FIRST_MAKEFILE) target gets you, usually this: $ false %DCL-W-IVVERB, unrecognized command verb - check validity and spelling \FALSE\ but that's a bit of a red herring (though a separate bug). The real issue is why it thinks it needs to regenerate the descrip.mms in the first place. A quick look at $(CONFIGDEPS) doesn't look that different from what's in maint. I'll try to investigate further one of these days but tuits are in short supply. -- ________________________________________ Craig A.
