Going way back upstream to the original test makefile:
-
default: program_name
PROGRAM_NAME Program_Name program_name:
@echo 'Do something for $@.'
-
The thing is that these targets are not actually declared as phony so of
course they're treated as files. I'm surprised no one el

Hm. I do run the regression test suite under Valgri

I'm not sure Make can distinguish between the two kinds. E.g., the
rules for generating the "phony" target could be given later. Paul
will know for sure.
And anyway, wouldn't it be confusing if case-sensitivity changed
depending on whether a file exists or doesn't?

Hello list.
In a discussion with the LuaList, I got involved with
how GNU-make on Windows handles all targets in a case-
insensitive manner. Like in this 'case-insensitive-win.mak':
-
default: program_name
PROGRAM_NAME Program_Name program_name:
@echo 'Do something for $@.'
