not sure on bash but this does not work in KSH.   What you are saying
is:

redirect 2 (stderr) to stdout (what 1 represents now)
redirect 1 (stdout) to a file, but not the stderr which is going to
stdout.

         make > tmp.log 2>&1

will always work.

Jan,

        make &> tmp.log

should be, probable fat fingers :-):

        make >& tmp.log

Must admit that I was not aware of this one before studying LPIC with
Geoff at Granville TAFE.
