The following makefile fails in make-3.80 but succeeds in make-3.79.1
---------------------------------------
[AllTargets] = libc.so libb.so
prereq: ${foreach z, $([AllTargets]), $(z)|@maked@}
all: ${foreach z, $([AllTargets]), $(z)|@maked@}
echo ${prereq}
-----------------------------------------
When the foreach command is used in the variable (prereq) it builds the list
like this
liba.so|@maked@ libb.so|@maked@
When the foreach is used as a prerequisite it produses this.
liba.so | @maked@ libb.so|@maked@
Note that the error is the spaces around the first '|' symbol. Adding a
backslash ('\') before the pipe ('|' in the foreach solves the problem.
This occurs in make-3.80 but not in make-3.79.1
Please respond directly to me as well as the mailing list as I do not
subscribe or have normal access to it.
