for a bit of time we had make -> gmake alias on g/fbsd profiles, but emake still called plain "make" (bsdmake). That was fine for most of the cases, gawk was the first one failing because it uess $(RM) which on gmake is an internal but it's not in other makes. The "good" solution was to fix the configure.in (or .ac i don't remember) to make sure that RM variable was set. That was discarded and we needed to let emake call gmake. The problem of make/gmake is minimal, just a few corner cases, but I don't really like have to use alias make='gmake' in profiles. -- Diego "Flameeyes" Pettenò Gentoo Developer - http://dev.gentoo.org/~flameeyes/ (Gentoo/FreeBSD, Video, Gentoo/AMD64, Sound, PAM)
