I am using Fedora 8. Also, the problem can be generated if using Fedora 4 and 5 except 3. If you have a Fedora 4 and above, please try it. I bet you will run into the same problem as Kurt and I did.
I ran into the problem with OpenSuSE 10.2
I can't try Fedora[458] in the immediate future, sorry. But at last I'm convinced that it seems GNU make on those distros behaves in different ways; differed expansion of CFLAGS is suspicious, but I'm not going to dig into further.
The version of make that I'm running is:
~> make --version GNU Make 3.81
me, too. But Debian's seems to have some extra bug fixes. As for Debian specific bugfixes, see [1].
-------------------------------- Package: make State: installed Automatically installed: no Version: 3.81-4 Priority: optional Section: devel Maintainer: Manoj Srivastava srivasta@debian.org Uncompressed Size: 991k Depends: libc6 (>= 2.7-1) Suggests: make-doc Description: The GNU version of the "make" utility. GNU Make is a program that determines which pieces of a large program need to be recompiled and issues the commands to recompile them, when necessary. More information about GNU Make can be found in the `make' Info page. The upstream sources for this package are available at the location ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make/. The documentation for this package does not meet the Debian Free Software Guidelines, and has been removed from this package. --------------------------------
I reverted Debian specific patches and repackaged GNU make; this will be pure GNU make 3.81 release. Next, I reverted Wolfgang's config.mk patch and tried M54455EVB_config again. But this *still* works fine.
Therefore I believe Debian's patches have no effect on our issue.
At this moment, I'm interested in VPATH (or vpath) on those systems when finally generating PLATFORM_LIBS. Passing -print-data-base to make will help in that case.
Otherwise, Fedora or OpenSuSE applies its specific patches on make...
But anyway, it seems the problem is already verified. I'm not going to dig into further :-)
thanks,
Shinya
