I am using make-3.81beta2 and have run into a situation in which make gets stuck in an infinite loop in the function update_goal_chain() in remake.c. I attached a debugger to the make process and stepped through this function. I found that 'lastgoal' was non-null and that update_file() always returned zero. As I look at update_goal_chain(), it appears that once these two conditions are true, 'goals' can never be changed and the outer-most loop can, therefore, never exit.
Testing reveals that the problem only occurs when we build our target with -j. Can you advise me on what to do to help track down this problem? Thank you, Darren _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
