Re: unterminated call to function: bug?

  md> v:=$(shell grep NAME file1 | sed -e '/^#/d;s/NAME:[ ]*//')

The "#" is being seen by make as a comment.  Try:

  v:=$(shell grep NAME file1 | sed -e '/^\#/d;s/NAME:[ ]*//')

Alternatively you can use a variable to hide it:

  hash := \#

  v:=$(shell grep NAME file1 | sed -e '/^$(hash)/d;s/NAME:[ ]*//')
