Follow-up Comment #1, bug #65908 (group make): I see line 3857 is the end of Makefile... and that the likely reason the testcase is so large is because it's hard to work out where the if/endif matching has gone astray. For me, running on Linux, the error initially reported is different:
mad@shuttle:~/tmp/make-65908/extracted-endif-testcase.zip/git$ ~/Downloads/make/make --version GNU Make 4.4.90 Built for x86_64-pc-linux-gnu Copyright (C) 1988-2024 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Stop. mad@shuttle:~/tmp/make-65908/extracted-endif-testcase.zip/git$ Some extra printf debugging revealed that things went astray with the tab-indented endif at config.mak.uname line 70 not being treated as a Make control directive, so not closing the tab-indented ifneq two lines earlier. It's in the middle of a bunch of assignments, rather than a recipe, so my initial thought is that Make's gone wrong here. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?65908> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
