Hi,
it came on now on the binutils mailing list:
The "a" program gets built only `if F' below. Makefile.in correctly contains:
@f_t...@a: b.c
@F_TRUE@ gcc -o $@ $< -Wall
But while does it also contains:
@f_fa...@a$(EXEEXT): $(a_OBJECTS) $(a_DEPENDENCIES)
@F_FALSE@ @rm -f a$(EXEEXT)
@F_FALSE@ $(LINK) $(a_OBJECTS) $(a_LDADD) $(LIBS)
which does not work anyway as $(a_OBJECTS) is not defined in @f_fa...@?
Posting here for a consideration as asked about by Ralf Wildenhues.
Thanks,
Jan
