Paul, Many thanks for your incredibly quick and informative response. Sure enough, changing that -include line to the following allows procps to be built with make-3.81.91 successfully: -include proc/module.mk ps/module.mk These are the only 2 module.mk files in the source tarball so it seems like the most appropriate fix. I'll report this to procps upstream. Thanks again, Matt. _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
