Hi. The following GNUmakefile behaves differently in the new 3.81-1 build compared to the 3.80-1 that was replaced. I did not find this subject when I looked at the recent messages. === default: C:\cygwin\bin/echo.exe "C:\cygwin\bin/echo" "Test" === 3.80-1 produces: $ make "C:\cygwin\bin/echo" "Test" Test === 3.81-1 produces: $ make GNUmakefile:1: *** target pattern contains no `%'. Stop. === Which is right for cygwin? I have a context that is now very dependent on 3.80-1's behavior. Is the context dependent on a mistake? Or is the new 3.81-1 not doing something it should? The actual GNUmakefile's use $(...) macros from environment variables that have Windows style paths. I vastly simplified the above to make the example. I simply replaced the make package with cygwin's setup.exe to go back and forth, with the rest of the environment unchanged and current according to setup.exe.
