It depends what you mean by "support". If someone else can come up with a trivial clean fix and integrate it and test it, that would be OK. But I doubt whether it's worth the maintainers' time to investigate the problem. The VPATH stuff is way too tricky to get "right", for all versions of Unix. It's much simpler to tell installers to avoid VPATH unless they use GNU Make. _______________________________________________ M4-discuss mailing list M4-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/m4-discuss
