We used to pass these values almost same way when we first did initdb in
C, and I don't recall any such problems. We had:
override CPPFLAGS := -DPGBINDIR=\"$(*bindir*)\" -DPGDATADIR=\"$(*datadir*)\"
-DFRONTEND -I$(*libpq_srcdir*) $(*CPPFLAGS*)
That seems a bit interesting. What are the stars for? I don't see
anything about a syntax like that in my gmake documentation.
The stars are from my MUA not handling C&P from formatted text as well
as it should in text mode. It should have read:
override CPPFLAGS := -DPGBINDIR=\"$(bindir)\" -DPGDATADIR=\"$(datadir)\"
-DFRONTEND -I$(libpq_srcdir) $(CPPFLAGS)
