Follow-up Comment #9, bug #27714 (project make): No, that's not equivalent. First, your GNU make syntax is wrong; you mean "FOO = $(shell echo bar)". And second, as far as I can see from the pmake documentation "FOO != echo bar" is actually equivalent to "FOO := $(shell echo bar)", so it doesn't apply to the issue discussed in this bug (which is that the expansion of the shell happens when the recipe is evaluated, not when the makefile is read in).
