GNU Make version 3.78.1 seems to have a bug in that '-k' is not
propagated correctly to sub-makes.

Now if I launch make in a top directory, and a subdir contains errors,
the make will stop there.  The remaining subdirs are not entered.

This happened when we upgraded the make from 3.77 to 3.78.1, previously
it worked fine.  The make continued if '-k' specified, making all the
subdirs even if one contained errors.

Our makefile setup is quite complex and I have not tried to replicate
the problem with a smaller makefile config.

I can reproduce the problem with both Linux RedHat 6.1, and Solaris 2.7.

Is this a known problem?

Harri
