the attached makefile works with basic make routine on my unix box and
gmake.
make -f makefile.simdif mul0 ; # works
gmake -f makefile.simdif mul0 ; # works
however, when I try to override the textmacro TIMING (defined in the
makefile)
make TIMING=min -f makefile.simdif mul0; # make command properly overrides
the internally defined textmacro and executes the make.
gmake TIMING=min -f makefile.simdif mul0 ; #-- gmake command fails ERROR 2
<<makefile.simdif>>
I have tried many different debug options and spent a bunch of time trying
to figure out why. to no avail.. Is this a legitimate bug?
