I'm running GNU Make 3.80 on Tru64 4.0F on an Alpha. I'm intermittently getting empty values as the result of a $(shell foo) function call. One 'make' run, the variable gets the value I expect, which is the output of the command; the next run, the variable gets an empty value.
I'm having the same exact problem. The shell function fails intermitently. A curious thing is that if I replace $(shell command ... ) with $(shell trace command ... ) then the problem disappears.
Have you found a solution? Please tell me if you do find one =)
(please, CCme replies as I'm not subscribed to the list)
