[bug #60538] Environment variable overrides explicit assignment

[Martin Dorey]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #60538 (project make):

Looks like it's working as designed to me.  If I do:

$ make -n -p -- TESTNAME=test_mtp_remap

... like in your original post:

> make blah TESTNAME=mytest1

... then I see that:

MAKEFLAGS = np -- $(MAKEOVERRIDES)

... where:

MAKEOVERRIDES = ${-*-command-variables-*-}

... and:

-*-command-variables-*- := TESTNAME=test_mtp_remap

https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Override-Directive.html
explains what you would need to do to override such a command line assignment.
