Details:
When I run make-4.1 with the attached makefile I get the following error
bug7.mk:5: *** missing separator. Stop.
This behavior looks inconsistent, because expanding variable D should give two
empty lines, which should then be ignored by make.
Such problem could be avoided by inserting a continue statement at
read.c:1509, as shown below.
/* If the line doesn't begin with a tab, test to see if it introduces
another define, or ends one. Stop if we find an 'endef' */
if (line[0] != cmd_prefix)
{
p = next_token (line);
len = strlen (p);
if (!len) continue; /* skip empty lines */
