One more question, relating to $(MAKE). There are a number of scripts besides the makefile that also invoke make. Should these also be modified? But then the mechanism would have to be different (environment variable?). Before I can sort that out, I would like to know what is the goal here? Is system make really not used in some environments? Or is there some magic in $(MAKE) within a makefile that is being used? If the latter, then I can probably just keep the other invocations of make are OK as is.
In other scripts, I think that "$MAKE" is mainly used to allow using a different version of make. For example, some systems might have a GNU make (installed as gmake) and a non-GNU make (installed as make). The MAKE environment variable can be set to the chosen make variant.
