* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Previously if --no-print-directory was seen anywhere in the environment or
command line it would take precedence over any --print-directory. Now, the
last setting of directory printing options seen will be used, so a command
line such as "--no-print-directory -w" _will_ show directory entry/exits.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Previously the order in which makefiles were remade was not explicitly
stated, but it was (roughly) the inverse of the order in which they were
processed by make. In this release, the order in which makefiles are
rebuilt is the same order in which make processed them, and this is defined
to be true in the GNU make manual.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Previously only simple (one-letter) options were added to the MAKEFLAGS
variable that was visible while parsing makefiles. Now, all options are
available in MAKEFLAGS. If you want to check MAKEFLAGS for a one-letter
option, expanding "$(firstword -$(MAKEFLAGS))" is a reliable way to return
the set of one-letter options which can be examined via findstring, etc.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Previously makefile variables marked as export were not exported to commands
started by the $(shell ...) function. Now, all exported variables are
exported to $(shell ...). If this leads to recursion during expansion, then
for backward-compatibility the value from the original environment is used.
To detect this change search for 'shell-export' in the .FEATURES variable.
* WARNING: New build requirement
GNU make utilizes facilities from GNU Gnulib: Gnulib requires certain C99
features in the C compiler and so these features are required by GNU make:
https://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/manual/html_node/C99-features-assumed.html
The configure script should verify the compiler has these features.
* New feature: The .WAIT special target
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/Base:System/make?expand=0&rev=75
- Update to make 4.3
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Number signs (#) appearing inside a macro reference or function
invocation no longer introduce comments and should not be escaped with
backslashes
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Previously appending using '+=' to an empty variable would result in a
value starting with a space
* NOTE: Deprecated behavior.
Contrary to the documentation, suffix rules with prerequisites are being
treated BOTH as simple targets AND as pattern rules
* New feature: Grouped explicit targets
* New feature: .EXTRA_PREREQS variable
* Makefiles can now specify the '-j' option in their MAKEFLAGS variable
and this will cause make to enable that parallelism mode
* Error messages printed when invoking non-existent commands have been
cleaned up and made consistent.
* A new option --no-silent has been added, that cancels the effect of
the -s/--silent/--quiet flag
* A new option -E has been added as a short alias for --eval
* All wildcard expansion within GNU make, including $(wildcard ...),
will sort the results
* Performance improvements provided by Paolo Bonzini

- Update to make 4.2
* New variable: $(.SHELLSTATUS) is set to the exit status of the last != or
$(shell ...) function invoked in this instance of make.
* The $(file ...) function can now read from a file with $(file <FILE).
* The makefile line numbers shown by GNU make now point directly to the
specific line in the recipe where the failure or warning occurred.
* The interface to GNU make's "jobserver" is stable as documented in the
manual, for tools which may want to access it.
* The amount of parallelism can be determined by querying MAKEFLAGS
