I don't have a problem with that, never did. > And now that i look at it, it *is* another sh -c bug. sigh. MSYS Bash _is_ weird, it tries to solve a hard problem, and sometimes fails. That's why using it with a native Make is not such a great idea. > I'd be all for detecting if the shell used is win32 native or not Make already does that, but only by the executable's file name. I don't see any good reasons to try detecting MSYS Bash as opposed to native Windows ports of shells, as there aren't good native ports. > at least, a user-runtime-togglable workaround for that would be better. > So we're back to square one. How about that first patch of mine? I have no problems with your original patch. I think I said that right there and then. If Paul agrees, I will commit it. _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
