I have come across a strange problem with make with b18.

I have two make files:

one.mk contains

all:
	@echo CC=$(CC)
	@make -f two.mk

two.mk conatins

all:	
	@echo CC=$(CC)


With b18 on NT4.0 and Win95 I get the following behaviour:

$ make -f one.make CC=xx
CC=xx
CC=gcc

but using Gnu make on Solaris or Linux or using Gnu make compiled as a
native application on NT 4.0 I get:
$ make -f one.mk
CC=xx
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/nick'
CC=xx
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/nick'  

or

$ make -s -f one.mk CC=xx
CC=xx
CC=xx   

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance.


Nick
