Well, that's sad on both our parts :). I usually bumble along until Eli whacks me on the head and points out where my POSIX blinders have led me. Anyway, sorry for my inscrutability: by "previous version" I meant the version you sent in your patch, here: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2017-09/msg00014.html I haven't pushed the changes I made yet. _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
