Follow-up Comment #4, bug #59154 (project make):
"Newlines in variable expansions are treated as real newlines in the rule."
Well, yes, of course. What I didn't expect is for the command to be truncated
at the first newline. The shell script
BLAH="hi
there"
export BLAH
echo "$BLAH"
properly echoes out both lines of BLAH... yet a Makefile with the same line it
it fails. But only in Gnu make; in BSD make, it works. I fail to understand
how this could be by design.
