 > As stated in #7818, some makefiles depend on $RM being unset or set to
 "rm -f". The above code overrides any $RM setting, which otherwise causes
 compilation failure (at least for me).

 There's a much simpler way to unset RM than use

 {{{
 : ${RM=rm}; RM="$RM -f"; export RM
 }}}

 one can use:

 {{{
 unset RM
 }}}

 If a Makefile needs RM set, I feel it would be better to fix the Makefile
 and report that upstream. Likewise if a Makefile needs {{{rm -f}}}, it
 should use {{{rm -f}}}
