FWIW, I agree with this notion. More generally, I think that if you
want to make "nicer make output", then I prefer a Linux style that I
(with my bug report reader hat on) can recognize and dismiss right away,
rather than having just part of the commands and leaving me with lots
of guessing.
While we're at this topic, I tried `./configure -C -q' for less output,
and saw this stray line in a coreutils build. Any reasons against this,
Jim, similar to getaddrinfo.m4?
Cheers,
Ralf
