On (info "(make) Automatic Variables") please mention which of M:/dev/null /dev/zero : $? : $+ : $^ : $|
are guaranteed to preserve the order. I.e., /dev/null /dev/zero not /dev/zero /dev/null. and which all bets are off. Also maybe when people read about (Info-index "order-only prerequisites") mention also there is also a second kind of order, the kind I mention above. _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
