That doesn't help, it makes things worse: the script complained it cannot run gnumake.exe, for some reason, and eventually it started more than 1000 perl processes and almost killed my machine. So I guess I will have to continue running tests that matter by hand and manually examining the results, as I did all these previous years... Too bad. Btw, why is features/archives disabled for MS-Windows? If Make was built with GCC, it means 'ar' is available and can be used. If I allow that, I get 7/12 tests passed in that category. _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
