I tried to do it in pure GNU Make, but I couldn't find a means to do it. For instance findstring finds alpha in alphabet. Could find a means to use filter or filter-out either to make sure there is just one string, and one I want. I find it surprising that there is nothing available to compare strings (but ifeq etc. which does not apply here: I want the code to be run when the variable is read, not when it is defined). >> From 52cfcc3a334abd7e4b028bb502761e9a3281f7b9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 >> From: Akim Demaille <a...@lrde.epita.fr> >> Date: Thu, 20 Sep 2012 11:10:34 +0200 >> Subject: [PATCH 3/3] maint.mk: provide "make upload" to ease uploading >> >> See <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2012-08/msg00028.html>. >> Do not depend simply on the current $(VERSION), as there may have been >> new commits since the tarball generation.

Actually it's a feature™: I was trying to use consistently the same interface for this series of commands, rather than different ones.
