Dear Maintainer,
Here is a minimal (Makefile.test) example to reproduce the problem,
derived from a complex build of Kokkos on a system with Make4.3-4
TMP_FILE=test.tmp
append_header = $(shell echo $1 >> $(TMP_FILE))
tmp := $(shell echo '\#if !defined(MYMACRO)' > $(TMP_FILE))
tmp := $(call append_header,'\#error "Do not include"')
Running
make -f Makefile.test
produces a test.tmp file with the following content
\#if !defined(MYMACRO)
\#error "Do not include"
The expected behaviour should have no \ before #.
I edited one line in Makefile.test, removing the \
tmp := $(shell echo '#if !defined(MYMACRO)' > $(TMP_FILE))
and ran it again. This should produce an error, as the # would be
interpreted as comment. It produces no error. The content of test.tmp is
now
#if !defined(MYMACRO)
\#error "Do not include"
Tests under Make4.2.1 and Make4.1 have no issues and behave as expected.
