It's slightly sub-optimal to have make -n dump core:
bledsoe[~][88] cd src/macros
bledsoe[~/src/macros][89] /usr/bin/X11/xmkmf
imake -DUseInstalled -I/usr/lib/X11/config
bledsoe[~/src/macros][90] make -n
UX:make: ERROR: make: file `Makefile' line 419: Must be a separator (: or ::) for rules (bu39)
UX:make: ERROR: make: file `Makefile' line 421: Must be a separator (: or ::) for rules (bu39)
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
Exit 139
bledsoe[~][62] which make
/sbin/make
The Imakefile is the new macros one, Craig and the same thing happened
which I use /usr/athena/bin/xmkmf. The lines in question looked like
unexpanded macros (build_program, create_depend), so I tried 'xmkmf
/source', and sure enough that works. In any case, I'd rather not have
make dump core. 'Course that may be beyond our power to fix, but that's
a different story.
