Ok. Well I guess it could be solved by letting the Configure script detect whether make supports the + notion and assign a variable, say R, either + or the empty string. Then in Makefile.org you could use $(R) at the start of the rules instead of +. Cheers, Mårten 2010/12/9 Richard Levitte : > A

Ah, got it. Trouble is, though, that Makefile.org is made to work with other make implementations as well. Adding gnuisms in it will create problems. Cheers, Richard In message on Wed, 8 Dec 2010 15:40:29 +0100, Mårten Wikström said: marten> Yes, it is a GNU Make feature as far as I know. T

Normally it handles this magic automatically but for this to work you have to call sub makes with $(MAKE), if you use anything else you manually have to mark th

Hmmm, I'm not aware of the meaning of a '+' at the start of command lines, never seen it before. I can't see any explanation in the GNU make manual, so I assume it's another implementation of make that supports this. Please enlighten me. Cheers, Richard In message on Wed, 8 Dec 2010 13:01:48

Hi! With the attached patch I can build openssl in parallel. Perhaps it is useful for someone else as well. Cheers, Mårten Index: openssl-0.9.8q/Makefile.org === --- openssl-0.9.8q.orig/Makefile.org 2010-12-08 11:13:10.381185998
