Follow-up Comment #1, bug #31361 (project make): I found the random filename elsewhere in the results file. Looks like cc1plus produces Assembler output in a temp location and then as compiles it into machine code. Ok, so that's how the build system works. Fine. Invoking cc1plus by hand, I find

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #31361 (project make): Thanks Eli. From my make output, make is already passing -v to cc1plus. It doesn't mention anything about not writing the file (or writing it and then deleting it). I see from this: COLLECT_GCC_OPTIONS='-v' '-DSmallTestLib_EXPORTS' '-Wwrite-strin

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #31361 (project make): I think this is a make timing issue. It looks like the file is created and then deleted before as is invoked. Why would this happen? It seems cc1plus doesn't have any more verbosity options than "-v". That might be a moot point though, since here

prerequisites alter choice of pattern match rules?

Hi, I have run into something I find strange with GNU Make 3.81 (yes, I know 3.82 is latest but since it's not in EL6, my target platform, I cannot depend on it's features). I would think that given the following set of rules: /tmp/%.foo: %.foo echo "foo rule 1" touch $@ %.foo:

Make and hex '0D'

Make considers the '0D' carriage-return character as significant, which it shouldn't. This behavior occurs under V.3.77 in the Linux Mandrake release 7.0, as well as in an earlier version running on UNIX on an SGI box. Consider a simple terminal rule: a.c:: a.h If the above ends with an '0A' c

Make CVS 7X slower on Win32 NTFS than beta 4
