Hello all,

This is a question to those well versed in GNU Autotools.

I have noticed that since certain time (Q4/2020 ?), OpenOCD no longer
builds on my CentOS 7 via GNU Make from the package system - version 3.82:

[matyas@pcmatyas riscv-openocd]$ make
Makefile:5675: *** missing separator.  Stop.

A newer version of Make (4.2) works fine for me.

I suspect this is because of a piece of a newer syntax in the Makefile, not
supported by that older version of Make, perhaps introduced in commit
4fc0f353, however I have not verified that yet.

The question is: Can we enforce a minimum version of Make in the Autotools
build system, so that users are properly notified if their Make version is
insufficient?

Thank you, regards
Jan
