- Gmake compliance is included for convenience because it may
- be found on many systems and most make programs are worse
- than gmake.
- If you have problems with the make file system and gmake,
- you are out of luck. Gmake has a debug option, but it gives
- tons of debug messages. Less than 1% of these debug messages are
- useful. Important things are missing in these debug messages.
- Gmake has bug with the VPATH= option. Some of the macros are
- not expanded correctly. I had to remove all occurrences of
- $@ $* and $^ on some places for this reason.
- On some platforms (e.g. OSF1), gmake is not able to correctly recognize
- the default target. If gmake complains about this, call ./Gmake all
- To use GNU make create a file called 'Gmake' in you search path
- that contains:
- #!/bin/sh
- MAKEPROG=gmake
- export MAKEPROG
- exec gmake "$@"
- and call 'Gmake' instead of gmake. On Linux there is no gmake, 'make'
- on Linux is really a gmake.
- 'Gmake' and 'Gmake.linux' are part of this distribution.
