I forgot to finish before hitting send. I'm unable to reproduce this in RHEL6 with make 4.1 or Solaris 10 with make 4.2.1. Generally it's considered a bad idea / poor form to use LD_LIBRARY_PATH. This could easily explain why we cannot reproduce it. If you have something in that path that

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #54529 (project make): Easily put back but I think the bug reporting thing has eaten a tab. Using a semicolon rather than newline and tab would avoid that. I can't reproduce the crash. I'm using the latest from git. If I were you, I'd run it under valgrind, then
