Make is not broken: this behavior WRT SHELL is mandated by the POSIX standard. There are various things you could do to resolve the issue: You could set SHELL=/bin/sh (or whatever) before invoking make. You could add "export SHELL" into your makefile, thus explicitly telling make to export the make value of SHELL to the child process environment. This is, of course, specific to GNU make but IIRC the GCC makefiles already require GNU make. You could add a setting of SHELL directly into the command script for those rules where it makes a difference. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
