As Paul points out, this is most probably a shell issue, not a Make issue. So the first thing to check is what shell is invoked by each version of Make to run these commands. If, by any chance, Make 3.79.1 invokes a ported Bash, then you will indeed see this behavior, since Bash restores the original working directory when it exits, to play the Unix compatibility game. _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
