Having just read
"FYI: TESTS_ENVIRONMENT patch"
over in libtool reminds me that essentially the same trivial problem happens
in automake, but I don't see the solution for a nice neat patch..
On my system, make = BSD make, gmake = GNU make.
For some reason ansi.test fails for me if I
gmake check
but not if I
gmake MAKE=gmake check
Why it fails with BSD make, who knows, but a separate problem is why is
ansi.test not using gmake..
>From configure:
checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... (cached) yes
>From ansi.test:
. $srcdir/defs || exit 1
>From defs:
# User can set MAKE to choose which make to use. Must use GNU make.
test -z "$MAKE" && MAKE=make
Ah - maybe its because defs is a shell script.. and make doesn't necessarily
export ${MAKE}?
