Too Long variable declaration

[Timur Valiulin]

Hi dear GNU

I think I have discovered bug in gnumake 3.79.1

Symtoms :
While processing file with the variable listed below:
INTERMS = camsg.o \
     cryphndl.o \
     lcm.o \
     lcmcallb.o \
     lcmctrl.o \
     lcmdbmsg.o \
     lcmsupp.o \
     lcmtimer.o \
     camsg.h \
     cryphndl.h \
     lcm.h \
     lcmcallb.h \
     lcmctrl.h \
     lcmdbmsg.h \
     lcmhide.h \
     lcmsupp.h \
     lcmtimer.h

gnu make exits with error code :
command statement before target on the line "lcmsupp.h \", after I shorten the
variable declaration to the following

INTERMS = camsg.o cryphndl.o lcm.o lcmcallb.o \
     lcmctrl.o \
     lcmdbmsg.o \
     lcmsupp.o \
     lcmtimer.o \
     camsg.h \
     cryphndl.h \
     lcm.h \
     lcmcallb.h \
     lcmctrl.h \
     lcmdbmsg.h \
     lcmhide.h \
     lcmsupp.h \
     lcmtimer.h

it proceeded with out errors.

I assume that the error occures when the long variable declarion appears.

Sincerely.
Timur Valiulin.
