I'm not sure what environment you're using, but my version of Guile
doesn't work with these special UTF-8 quote characters you're using
here: “ and ”.
When I try to use them, and the sample makefile you've provided, I get
all sorts of bizarre errors from the Guile interpreter.
If I replace these characters with standard ASCII double-quote
characters " then it seems to work fine:
$ cat Makefile
define FNORD
;; Simple initial Guile-test
(define (fnord value)
value)
endef
# Internalize the Guile code
$(guile $(FNORD))
FOO = $(guile (fnord "F N O R D"))
$(info $$FOO is [$(FOO)])
fnord: ; for i in "$(FOO)"; do echo $$i; done
$ make
$FOO is [F N O R D]
for i in "F N O R D"; do echo $i; done
F N O R D
If you don't see this behavior you'll need to provide more details such
as which version of Guile you compiled with.
