>If you want to force make to always start a shell and never use the fast


path the best way is to name your shell something else, like /bin/mgsh
or something, then set make's SHELL variable to that path.  Since make
is no longer sure if your shell is a POSIX shell, it will never use the
fast path.




I know that Paul :)  Every child in kindergarten knows the SHELL hack.  Works 
with one Makefile.  Does not work on a massively recursive system.  That is my 
problem.
