Hi,
After a long bug hunting in a set of complex Makefiles, I came up with that
simple test that let me think there is a problem in gmake itself:
-- cut here --
define test1
$(eval export AA)
endef
define test2
$(eval export AB=)
endef
define test3
$(eval export AC=x)
endef
$(call test1)
$(call test2)
$(call test3)
$(eval export AD)
all:
env | grep ^A
-- cut here --
The output from gmake is :
env | grep ^A
AB=
AC=x
AD=
Note that 'AA' variable is not exported.
I can reproduce this with gmake-3.81 or 3.82, on different platforms (Linux,
NetBSD).
Am I missing something, or is there really a problem here?
