In cbgrx103.zip, the file makefile.gcc in contrib/libgrx/test
has several problems when using make v3.71:
(1) The if/else/endif statements:
!if $d(DEBUG)
!else
!endif
generate syntax errors ("missing separator" on the if-statement).
I can't find any information on the exclamation marks or the
$d macro(?). Does anyone know their purpose?
Since the intent of the statements seemed clear,
I confidently removed the statements to eliminate the gripe.
(2) After removing the above if/else/endif, make now says:
"no rule to make target `s.test.'. Stop."
A similar message is generated when I try to make wintest.,
winclip., etc.
I eliminated this problem by inserting the line:
".SUFFIXES : .c ."
at the top of the makefile.
Are these real, genuine errors (and I'm the first intrepid soul to find them)
or are these symptoms of some sort of installation problem?
