I am having a problem with a pattern rule with gmake. To generate the
problem, a file called xxx (any file is fine) is needed in the same
directory as the make file and the directories bin and bin2 do not exist.
I am using gmake version:
>$ gmake -v
GNU Make version 3.79.1, by Richard Stallman
I have discovered some misleading behaviour in GNU Make. It pertains
to the combination of RCS files and VPATH. Here is a Makefile that I
have written to demonstrate the problem. Suppose this is a Makefile
generated by `configure' -- ie. it resides in the "build tree" (see
diagram below).
On Solaris, development utilities like ar, ld, make, nm, stc. are all
found in /usr/ccs/bin. Add that to your PATH.
