revert previous: it can't help as ENULLLOOP() already sets errno = 0. pointed out by hgutch
fix the "gmake readdir" fails bug. i had a look and there are only 2 calls to readdir() in gmake, and one of them doesn't have the error. the code around the other one assumes that readdir(), when returning NULL for "end of directory", has cleared errno, but this isn't required and infact, is *not* expected. the 2024 opengroup definition of readdir explicitly says: When the end of the directory is encountered, a null pointer shall be returned and errno is not changed. the netbsd readdir() does not change errno in this case. this bug is difficult to reproduce, but setting "errno = 0" before this call to readdir() *should* avoid it.
gmake: update to 4.4.1. Version 4.4.1 (26 Feb 2023) This release is primarily a bug-fix release. A complete list of bugs fixed in this version is available here: https://sv.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?group=make&report_id=111&fix_release_id=110&set=custom * WARNING: Backward-incompatibility! In previous releases it was not well-defined when updates to MAKEFLAGS made inside a makefile would be visible. This release ensures they are visible immediately, even when invoking $(shell ...) functions. Also, command line variable assignments are now always present in MAKEFLAGS, even when parsing makefiles. Implementation provided by Dmitry Goncharov <[email protected]> * New feature: Parallel builds of archives Previously it was not possible to use parallel builds with archives. It is still not possible using the built-in rules, however you can now override the built-in rules with a slightly different set of rules and use parallel builds with archive creation. See the "Dangers When Using Archives" section of the GNU Make manual, and https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?14927 * Previously target-specific variables would inherit their "export" capability from parent target-specific variables even if they were marked private. Now private parent target-specific variables have no affect. For more details see https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?61463 * Disable FIFO jobserver on GNU/Hurd and Cygwin Experimentation shows that the new FIFO-based jobserver doesn't work well on GNU/Hurd or Cygwin: revert these systems to use the pipe-based jobserver. * Updates to allow building on OS/2 Provided by KO Myung-Hun <[email protected]> * New platform: GNU Make is supported on z/OS Thanks to Igor Todorovski <[email protected]> for the patches and testing assistance.
gmake: update to 4.4.
Tested by jperkin in a bulk build with no obvious issues.
Version 4.4 (31 Oct 2022)
A complete list of bugs fixed in this version is available here:
https://sv.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?group=make&report_id=111&fix_release_id=109&set=custom
* WARNING: Deprecation!
The following systems are deprecated in this release:
- OS/2 (EMX)
- AmigaOS
- Xenix
- Cray
In the NEXT release of GNU Make, support for these systems will be removed.
If you want to see them continue to be supported, contact <[email protected]>.
* WARNING: Future backward-incompatibility!
In the NEXT release of GNU Make, pattern rules will implement the same
behavior change for multiple targets as explicit grouped targets, below: if
any target of the rule is needed by the build, the recipe will be invoked if
any target of the rule is missing or out of date. During testing some
makefiles were found to contain pattern rules that do not build all targets;
this can cause issues so we are delaying this change for one release cycle
to allow these makefiles to be updated. GNU Make shows a warning if it
detects this situation: "pattern recipe did not update peer target".
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
GNU Make now uses temporary files in more situations than previous releases.
If your build system sets TMPDIR (or TMP or TEMP on Windows) and deletes the
contents during the build, or uses restrictive permissions, this may cause
problems. You can choose an alternative temporary directory only for use by
GNU Make by setting the new MAKE_TMPDIR environment variable before invoking
make. Note that this value CANNOT be set inside the makefile, since make
needs to find its temporary directory before the makefiles are parsed.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Previously each target in a explicit grouped target rule was considered
individually: if the targets needed by the build were not out of date the
recipe was not run even if other targets in the group were out of date. Now
if any of the grouped targets are needed by the build, then if any of the
grouped targets are out of date the recipe is run and all targets in the
group are considered updated.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Previously if --no-print-directory was seen anywhere in the environment or
command line it would take precedence over any --print-directory. Now, the
last setting of directory printing options seen will be used, so a command
line such as "--no-print-directory -w" _will_ show directory entry/exits.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Previously the order in which makefiles were remade was not explicitly
stated, but it was (roughly) the inverse of the order in which they were
processed by make. In this release, the order in which makefiles are
rebuilt is the same order in which make processed them, and this is defined
to be true in the GNU Make manual.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Previously only simple (one-letter) options were added to the MAKEFLAGS
variable that was visible while parsing makefiles. Now, all options are
available in MAKEFLAGS. If you want to check MAKEFLAGS for a one-letter
option, expanding "$(firstword -$(MAKEFLAGS))" is a reliable way to return
the set of one-letter options which can be examined via findstring, etc.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Previously makefile variables marked as export were not exported to commands
started by the $(shell ...) function. Now, all exported variables are
exported to $(shell ...). If this leads to recursion during expansion, then
for backward-compatibility the value from the original environment is used.
To detect this change search for 'shell-export' in the .FEATURES variable.
* WARNING: New build requirement
GNU Make utilizes facilities from GNU Gnulib: Gnulib requires certain C99
features in the C compiler and so these features are required by GNU Make:
https://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/manual/html_node/C99-features-assumed.html
The configure script should verify the compiler has these features.
* New feature: The .WAIT special target
If the .WAIT target appears between two prerequisites of a target, then
GNU Make will wait for all of the targets to the left of .WAIT in the list
to complete before starting any of the targets to the right of .WAIT.
This feature is available in some other versions of make, and it will be
required by an upcoming version of the POSIX standard for make.
Different patches were made by Alexey Neyman <[email protected]> (2005)
and Steffen Nurpmeso <[email protected]> (2020) that were useful but the
result is a different implementation (closer to Alexey's idea).
* New feature: .NOTPARALLEL accepts prerequisites
If the .NOTPARALLEL special target has prerequisites then all prerequisites
of those targets will be run serially (as if .WAIT was specified between
each prerequisite).
* New feature: The .NOTINTERMEDIATE special target
.NOTINTERMEDIATE disables intermediate behavior for specific files, for all
files built using a pattern, or for the entire makefile.
Implementation provided by Dmitry Goncharov <[email protected]>
* New feature: The $(let ...) function
This function allows user-defined functions to define a set of local
variables: values can be assigned to these variables from within the
user-defined function and they will not impact global variable assignments.
Implementation provided by Jouke Witteveen <[email protected]>
* New feature: The $(intcmp ...) function
This function allows conditional evaluation controlled by a numerical
comparison.
Implementation provided by Jouke Witteveen <[email protected]>
* New feature: Improved support for -l / --load-average
On systems that provide /proc/loadavg (Linux), GNU Make will use it to
determine the number of runnable jobs and use this as the current load,
avoiding the need for heuristics.
Implementation provided by Sven C. Dack <[email protected]>
* New feature: The --shuffle command line option
This option reorders goals and prerequisites to simulate non-determinism
that may be seen using parallel build. Shuffle mode allows a form of "fuzz
testing" of parallel builds to verify that all prerequisites are correctly
described in the makefile.
Implementation provided by Sergei Trofimovich <[email protected]>
* New feature: The --jobserver-style command line option and named pipes
A new jobserver method is used on systems where mkfifo(3) is supported.
This solves a number of obscure issues related to using the jobserver
and recursive invocations of GNU Make. This change means that sub-makes
will connect to the jobserver even if they are not marked as recursive.
It also means that other tools that want to participate in the jobserver
will need to be enhanced as described in the GNU Make manual.
You can force GNU Make to use the simple pipe-based jobserver (perhaps if
you are integrating with other tools or older versions of GNU Make) by
adding the '--jobserver-style=pipe' option to the command line of the
top-level invocation of GNU Make, or via MAKEFLAGS or GNUMAKEFLAGS.
To detect this change search for 'jobserver-fifo' in the .FEATURES variable.
* Some POSIX systems (*BSD) do not allow locks to be taken on pipes, which
caused the output sync feature to not work properly there. Also multiple
invocations of make redirecting to the same output file (e.g., /dev/null)
would cause hangs. Instead of locking stdout (which does have some useful
performance characteristics, but is not portable) create a temporary file
and lock that. Windows continues to use a mutex as before.
* GNU Make has sometimes chosen unexpected, and sub-optimal, chains of
implicit rules due to the definition of "ought to exist" in the implicit
rule search algorithm, which considered any prerequisite mentioned in the
makefile as "ought to exist". This algorithm has been modified to prefer
prerequisites mentioned explicitly in the target being built and only if
that results in no matching rule, will GNU Make consider prerequisites
mentioned in other targets as "ought to exist".
Implementation provided by Dmitry Goncharov <[email protected]>
* GNU Make was performing secondary expansion of all targets, even targets
which didn't need to be considered during the build. In this release
only targets which are considered will be secondarily expanded.
Implementation provided by Dmitry Goncharov <[email protected]>
* If the MAKEFLAGS variable is modified in a makefile, it will be re-parsed
immediately rather than after all makefiles have been read. Note that
although all options are parsed immediately, some special effects won't
appear until after all makefiles are read.
* The -I option accepts an argument "-" (e.g., "-I-") which means "reset the
list of search directories to empty". Among other things this can be used
to prevent GNU Make from searching in its default list of directories.
* New debug option "print" will show the recipe to be run, even when silent
mode is set, and new debug option "why" will show why a target is rebuilt
(which prerequisites caused the target to be considered out of date).
Implementation provided by David Boyce <[email protected]>
* The existing --trace option is made equivalent to --debug=print,why
* Target-specific variables can now be marked "unexport".
* Exporting / unexporting target-specific variables is handled correctly, so
that the attribute of the most specific variable setting is used.
* Special targets like .POSIX are detected upon definition, ensuring that any
change in behavior takes effect immediately, before the next line is parsed.
* When the pipe-based jobserver is enabled and GNU Make decides it is invoking
a non-make sub-process and closes the jobserver pipes, it will now add a new
option to the MAKEFLAGS environment variable that disables the jobserver.
This prevents sub-processes that invoke make from accidentally using other
open file descriptors as jobserver pipes. For more information see
https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?57242 and https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62397
* A long-standing issue with the directory cache has been resolved: changes
made as a side-effect of some other target's recipe are now noticed as
expected.
* GNU Make can now be built for MS-Windows using the Tiny C tcc compiler.

Version 4.3 (19 Jan 2020)
A complete list of bugs fixed in this version is available here:
https://sv.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?group=make&report_id=111&fix_release_id=108&set=custom
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Number signs (#) appearing inside a macro reference or function invocation
no longer introduce comments and should not be escaped with backslashes:
thus a call such as:
foo := $(shell echo '#')
is legal. Previously the number sign needed to be escaped, for example:
foo := $(shell echo '\#')
Now this latter will resolve to "\#". If you want to write makefiles
portable to both versions, assign the number sign to a variable:
H := \#
foo := $(shell echo '$H')
This was claimed to be fixed in 3.81, but wasn't, for some reason.
To detect this change search for 'nocomment' in the .FEATURES variable.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Previously appending using '+=' to an empty variable would result in a value
starting with a space. Now the initial space is only added if the variable
already contains some value. Similarly, appending an empty string does not
add a trailing space.
* NOTE: Deprecated behavior.
Contrary to the documentation, suffix rules with prerequisites are being
treated BOTH as simple targets AND as pattern rules. Further, the
prerequisites are ignored by the pattern rules. POSIX specifies that in
order to be a suffix rule there can be no prerequisites defined. In this
release if POSIX mode is enabled then rules with prerequisites cannot be
suffix rules. If POSIX mode is not enabled then the previous behavior is
preserved (a pattern rule with no extra prerequisites is created) AND a
warning about this behavior is generated:
warning: ignoring prerequisites on suffix rule definition
The POSIX behavior will be adopted as the only behavior in a future release
of GNU make so please resolve any warnings.
* New feature: Grouped explicit targets
Pattern rules have always had the ability to generate multiple targets with
a single invocation of the recipe. It's now possible to declare that an
explicit rule generates multiple targets with a single invocation. To use
this, replace the ":" token with "&:" in the rule. To detect this feature
search for 'grouped-target' in the .FEATURES special variable.
Implementation contributed by Kaz Kylheku <[email protected]>
* New feature: .EXTRA_PREREQS variable
Words in this variable are considered prerequisites of targets but they are
not added to any of the automatic variable values when expanding the
recipe. This variable can either be global (applies to all targets) or
a target-specific variable. To detect this feature search for 'extra-prereqs'
in the .FEATURES special variable.
Implementation contributed by Christof Warlich <[email protected]>
* Makefiles can now specify the '-j' option in their MAKEFLAGS variable and
this will cause make to enable that parallelism mode.
* GNU make will now use posix_spawn() on systems where it is available.
If you prefer to use fork/exec even on systems where posix_spawn() is
present, you can use the --disable-posix-spawn option to configure.
Implementation contributed by Aron Barath <[email protected]>
* Error messages printed when invoking non-existent commands have been cleaned
up and made consistent.
* The previous limit of 63 jobs under -jN on MS-Windows is now
increased to 4095. That limit includes the subprocess started by
the $(shell) function.
* A new option --no-silent has been added, that cancels the effect of the
-s/--silent/--quiet flag.
* A new option -E has been added as a short alias for --eval.
* All wildcard expansion within GNU make, including $(wildcard ...), will sort
the results. See https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?52076
* Interoperate with newer GNU libc and musl C runtime libraries.
* Performance improvements provided by Paolo Bonzini <[email protected]>
GNU make Developer News
* Import the GNU standard bootstrap script to replace the hand-rolled
"make update" method for building code from a GNU make Git repository.
* Rework the source distribution to move source files into the src/*
subdirectory. This aligns with modern best practices in GNU.
* Replace local portability code with Gnulib content. Unfortunately due to a
problem with Gnulib support for getloadavg, this forces a requirement on
Automake 1.16 or above in order to build from Git. See README.git.
devel/gmake: add link to the 4.3 release notes
devel/gmake: Note why updates are on hold I would never look in doc/TODO to find out why not to update a package, and I wouldn't expect others to do that. Therefore, put the notion of 4.3 being on hold and why in a comment right before the version line. Declare that an update requires a proposal to tech-pkg and consensus.
Revert to v4.2.1 4.3 introduces some incompatible changes which causes fallout with a lot of packages. Heads up by ryoon@ about the doc/TODO which I did not read before updating.

Previously using the .SILENT pseudo-target in a makefile would force all
sub-makes to be invoked with the '-s' option, effectively making all
sub-makes silent as well. In this release, .SILENT only has effect for the
current invocation of make. As a side-effect of this, .SILENT no longer has
a side-effect of enabling the --no-print-directory option, which using -s
will do.

all: migrate several HOMEPAGEs to https pkglint --only "https instead of http" -r -F With manual adjustments afterwards since pkglint 19.4.4 fixed a few indentations in unrelated lines. This mainly affects projects hosted at SourceForce, as well as freedesktop.org, CTAN and GNU.
gmake: fix PR pkg/54629 pkgsrc changes: - Remove PLIST_SRC in Makefile. - Remove PLIST.locale file (use PLIST.nls instead).
gmake: Unconditionally avoid setgid and group change in configure phase On some systems gmake can be installed setgid and with the group adjusted according the group of /dev/kmem. Previously this was adjusted in post-install phase. Rework that by passing CONFIGURE_ARGS instead and document that via a comment.
Patch SV 51159 in GNU Make. Hopefully this will fix the problems joerg@ and others encountered last time gmake was updated to 4.2.1. Description of the patch: [SV 51159] Use a non-blocking read with pselect to avoid hangs. * posixos.c (set_blocking): Set blocking on a file descriptor. (jobserver_setup): Set non-blocking on the jobserver read side. (jobserver_parse_auth): Ditto. (jobserver_acquire_all): Set blocking to avoid a busy-wait loop. (jobserver_acquire): If the non-blocking read() returns without taking a token then try again.

* The $(file ...) function can now read from a file with $(file <FILE).
The function is expanded to the contents of the file. The contents are
expanded verbatim except that the final newline, if any, is stripped.
* The makefile line numbers shown by GNU make now point directly to the
specific line in the recipe where the failure or warning occurred.
Sample changes suggested by Brian Vandenberg <[email protected]>
* The interface to GNU make's "jobserver" is stable as documented in the
manual, for tools which may want to access it.
WARNING: Backward-incompatibility! The internal-only command line option
--jobserver-fds has been renamed for publishing, to --jobserver-auth.
* The amount of parallelism can be determined by querying MAKEFLAGS, even when
the job server is enabled (previously MAKEFLAGS would always contain only
"-j", with no number, when job server was enabled).

From 4762480ae9cb8df4878286411f178d32db14eff0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Paul Smith <[email protected]>
Date: Tue, 31 May 2016 06:56:51 +0000
Subject: [SV 47995] Ensure forced double-colon rules work with -j.
The fix for SV 44742 had a side-effect that some double-colon targets
were skipped. This happens because the "considered" facility assumed
that all targets would be visited on each walk through the dependency
graph: we used a bit for considered and toggled it on each pass; if
we didn't walk the entire graph on every pass the bit would get out
of sync. The new behavior after SV 44742 might return early without
walking the entire graph. To fix this I changed the considered value
to an integer which is monotonically increasing: it is then never
possible to incorrectly determine that a previous pass through the
graph already considered the current target.

Update to 4.1: Version 4.1 (05 Oct 2014) A complete list of bugs fixed in this version is available here: http://sv.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?group=make&report_id=111&fix_release_id=105&set=custom * New variables: $(MAKE_TERMOUT) and $(MAKE_TERMERR) are set to non-empty values if stdout or stderr, respectively, are believed to be writing to a terminal. These variables are exported by default. * Allow a no-text-argument form of the $(file ...) function. Without a text argument nothing is written to the file: it is simply opened in the requested mode, then closed again. * Change the fatal error for mixed explicit and implicit rules, that was introduced in GNU make 3.82, to a non-fatal error. However, this syntax is still deprecated and may return to being illegal in a future version of GNU make. Makefiles that rely on this syntax should be fixed. See https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?33034

Update to 4.0:
Version 4.0 (09 Oct 2013)
A complete list of bugs fixed in this version is available here:
http://sv.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?group=make&report_id=111&fix_release_id=101&set=custom
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
If .POSIX is specified, then make adheres to the POSIX backslash/newline
handling requirements, which introduces the following changes to the
standard backslash/newline handling in non-recipe lines:
* Any trailing space before the backslash is preserved
* Each backslash/newline (plus subsequent whitespace) is converted to a
single space
* New feature: GNU Guile integration
This version of GNU make can be compiled with GNU Guile integration.
GNU Guile serves as an embedded extension language for make.
See the "Guile Function" section in the GNU Make manual for details.
Currently GNU Guile 1.8 and 2.0+ are supported. In Guile 1.8 there is no
support for internationalized character sets. In Guile 2.0+, scripts can be
encoded in UTF-8.
* New command line option: --output-sync (-O) enables grouping of output by
target or by recursive make. This is useful during parallel builds to avoid
mixing output from different jobs together giving hard-to-understand
results. Original implementation by David Boyce <[email protected]>.
Reworked and enhanced by Frank Heckenbach <[email protected]>.
Windows support by Eli Zaretskii <[email protected]>.
* New command line option: --trace enables tracing of targets. When enabled
the recipe to be invoked is printed even if it would otherwise be suppressed
by .SILENT or a "@" prefix character. Also before each recipe is run the
makefile name and linenumber where it was defined are shown as well as the
prerequisites that caused the target to be considered out of date.
* New command line option argument: --debug now accepts a "n" (none) flag
which disables all debugging settings that are currently enabled.
* New feature: The "job server" capability is now supported on Windows.
Implementation contributed by Troy Runkel <[email protected]>
* New feature: The .ONESHELL capability is now supported on Windows. Support
added by Eli Zaretskii <[email protected]>.
* New feature: "!=" shell assignment operator as an alternative to the
$(shell ...) function. Implemented for compatibility with BSD makefiles.
Note there are subtle differences between "!=" and $(shell ...). See the
description in the GNU make manual.
WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Variables ending in "!" previously defined as "variable!= value" will now be
interpreted as shell assignment. Change your assignment to add whitespace
between the "!" and "=": "variable! = value"
* New feature: "::=" simple assignment operator as defined by POSIX in 2012.
This operator has identical functionality to ":=" in GNU make, but will be
portable to any implementation of make conforming to a sufficiently new
version of POSIX (see http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=330). It is
not necessary to define the .POSIX target to access this operator.
* New feature: Loadable objects
This version of GNU make contains a "technology preview": the ability to
load dynamic objects into the make runtime. These objects can be created by
the user and can add extended functionality, usable by makefiles.
* New function: $(file ...) writes to a file.
* New variable: $(GNUMAKEFLAGS) will be parsed for make flags, just like
MAKEFLAGS is. It can be set in the environment or the makefile, containing
GNU make-specific flags to allow your makefile to be portable to other
versions of make. Once this variable is parsed, GNU make will set it to the
empty string so that flags will not be duplicated on recursion.
* New variable: `MAKE_HOST' gives the name of the host architecture
make was compiled for. This is the same value you see after 'Built for'
when running 'make --version'.
* Behavior of MAKEFLAGS and MFLAGS is more rigorously defined. All simple
flags are grouped together in the first word of MAKEFLAGS. No options that
accept arguments appear in the first word. If no simple flags are present
MAKEFLAGS begins with a space. Flags with both short and long versions
always use the short versions in MAKEFLAGS. Flags are listed in
alphabetical order using ASCII ordering. MFLAGS never begins with "- ".
* Setting the -r and -R options in MAKEFLAGS inside a makefile now works as
expected, removing all built-in rules and variables, respectively.
* If a recipe fails, the makefile name and linenumber of the recipe are shown.
* A .RECIPEPREFIX setting is remembered per-recipe and variables expanded
in that recipe also use that recipe prefix setting.
* In -p output, .RECIPEPREFIX settings are shown and all target-specific
variables are output as if in a makefile, instead of as comments.
* On MS-Windows, recipes that use ".." quoting will no longer force
invocation of commands via temporary batch files and stock Windows
shells, they will be short-circuited and invoked directly. (In
other words, " is no longer a special character for stock Windows
shells.) This avoids hitting shell limits for command length when
quotes are used, but nothing else in the command requires the shell.
This change could potentially mean some minor incompatibilities in
behavior when the recipe uses quoted string on shell command lines.
Bump all packages for perl-5.18, that a) refer 'perl' in their Makefile, or b) have a directory name of p5-*, or c) have any dependency on any p5-* package Like last time, where this caused no complaints.
Force intermediate targets to be considered if they are non-intermediate for parallel builds in devel/gmake
Add PKGGNUDIR support.
Drop superfluous PKG_DESTDIR_SUPPORT, "user-destdir" is default these days.
Add symlink gnu/man/man1/make.1 ++pkgrevision
Remove GNU_PROGRAM_PREFIX variable (discussed in pkgsrc-users@).
All utilities are installed with a prefix 'g'. Symlinks with original
names are created in ${PREFIX}/gnu/bin.
++pkgrevision
Fix for some pkglint warnings
Fix PLIST for option nls.

Update to 3.82:
Version 3.82
A complete list of bugs fixed in this version is available here:
http://sv.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?group=make&report_id=111&fix_release_id=104&set=custom
* Compiling GNU make now requires a conforming ISO C 1989 compiler and
standard runtime library.
* WARNING: Future backward-incompatibility!
Wildcards are not documented as returning sorted values, but up to and
including this release the results have been sorted and some makefiles are
apparently depending on that. In the next release of GNU make, for
performance reasons, we may remove that sorting. If your makefiles
require sorted results from wildcard expansions, use the $(sort ...)
function to request it explicitly.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
The POSIX standard for make was changed in the 2008 version in a
fundamentally incompatible way: make is required to invoke the shell as if
the '-e' flag were provided. Because this would break many makefiles that
have been written to conform to the original text of the standard, the
default behavior of GNU make remains to invoke the shell with simply '-c'.
However, any makefile specifying the .POSIX special target will follow the
new POSIX standard and pass '-e' to the shell. See also .SHELLFLAGS
below.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
The '$?' variable now contains all prerequisites that caused the target to
be considered out of date, even if they do not exist (previously only
existing targets were provided in $?).
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
As a result of parser enhancements, three backward-compatibility issues
exist: first, a prerequisite containing an "=" cannot be escaped with a
backslash any longer. You must create a variable containing an "=" and
use that variable in the prerequisite. Second, variable names can no
longer contain whitespace, unless you put the whitespace in a variable and
use the variable. Third, in previous versions of make it was sometimes
not flagged as an error for explicit and pattern targets to appear in the
same rule. Now this is always reported as an error.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
The pattern-specific variables and pattern rules are now applied in the
shortest stem first order instead of the definition order (variables
and rules with the same stem length are still applied in the definition
order). This produces the usually-desired behavior where more specific
patterns are preferred. To detect this feature search for 'shortest-stem'
in the .FEATURES special variable.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
The library search behavior has changed to be compatible with the standard
linker behavior. Prior to this version for prerequisites specified using
the -lfoo syntax make first searched for libfoo.so in the current
directory, vpath directories, and system directories. If that didn't yield
a match, make then searched for libfoo.a in these directories. Starting
with this version make searches first for libfoo.so and then for libfoo.a
in each of these directories in order.
* New command line option: --eval=STRING causes STRING to be evaluated as
makefile syntax (akin to using the $(eval ...) function). The evaluation
is performed after all default rules and variables are defined, but before
any makefiles are read.
* New special variable: .RECIPEPREFIX allows you to reset the recipe
introduction character from the default (TAB) to something else. The
first character of this variable value is the new recipe introduction
character. If the variable is set to the empty string, TAB is used again.
It can be set and reset at will; recipes will use the value active when
they were first parsed. To detect this feature check the value of
$(.RECIPEPREFIX).
* New special variable: .SHELLFLAGS allows you to change the options passed
to the shell when it invokes recipes. By default the value will be "-c"
(or "-ec" if .POSIX is set).
* New special target: .ONESHELL instructs make to invoke a single instance
of the shell and provide it with the entire recipe, regardless of how many
lines it contains. As a special feature to allow more straightforward
conversion of makefiles to use .ONESHELL, any recipe line control
characters ('@', '+', or '-') will be removed from the second and
subsequent recipe lines. This happens _only_ if the SHELL value is deemed
to be a standard POSIX-style shell. If not, then no interior line control
characters are removed (as they may be part of the scripting language used
with the alternate SHELL).
* New variable modifier 'private': prefixing a variable assignment with the
modifier 'private' suppresses inheritance of that variable by
prerequisites. This is most useful for target- and pattern-specific
variables.
* New make directive: 'undefine' allows you to undefine a variable so that
it appears as if it was never set. Both $(flavor) and $(origin) functions
will return 'undefined' for such a variable. To detect this feature search
for 'undefine' in the .FEATURES special variable.
* The parser for variable assignments has been enhanced to allow multiple
modifiers ('export', 'override', 'private') on the same line as variables,
including define/endef variables, and in any order. Also, it is possible
to create variables and targets named as these modifiers.
* The 'define' make directive now allows a variable assignment operator
after the variable name, to allow for simple, conditional, or appending
multi-line variable assignment.

Update to 3.81:
Version 3.81
* GNU make is ported to OS/2.
* GNU make is ported to MinGW. The MinGW build is only supported by
the build_w32.bat batch file; see the file README.W32 for more
details.
* WARNING: Future backward-incompatibility!
Up to and including this release, the '$?' variable does not contain
any prerequisite that does not exist, even though that prerequisite
might have caused the target to rebuild. Starting with the _next_
release of GNU make, '$?' will contain all prerequisites that caused
the target to be considered out of date. See this Savannah bug:
http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?func=detailitem&item_id=16051
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
GNU make now implements a generic "second expansion" feature on the
prerequisites of both explicit and implicit (pattern) rules. In order
to enable this feature, the special target '.SECONDEXPANSION' must be
defined before the first target which takes advantage of it. If this
feature is enabled then after all rules have been parsed the
prerequisites are expanded again, this time with all the automatic
variables in scope. This means that in addition to using standard
SysV $$@ in prerequisites lists, you can also use complex functions
such as $$(notdir $$@) etc. This behavior applies to implicit rules,
as well, where the second expansion occurs when the rule is matched.
However, this means that when '.SECONDEXPANSION' is enabled you must
double-quote any "$" in your filenames; instead of "foo: boo$$bar" you
now must write "foo: foo$$$$bar". Note that the SysV $$@ etc. feature,
which used to be available by default, is now ONLY available when the
.SECONDEXPANSION target is defined. If your makefiles take advantage
of this SysV feature you will need to update them.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
In order to comply with POSIX, the way in which GNU make processes
backslash-newline sequences in command strings has changed. If your
makefiles use backslash-newline sequences inside of single-quoted
strings in command scripts you will be impacted by this change. See
the GNU make manual subsection "Splitting Command Lines" (node
"Splitting Lines"), in section "Command Syntax", chapter "Writing the
Commands in Rules", for details.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Some previous versions of GNU make had a bug where "#" in a function
invocation such as $(shell ...) was treated as a make comment. A
workaround was to escape these with backslashes. This bug has been
fixed: if your makefile uses "\#" in a function invocation the
backslash is now preserved, so you'll need to remove it.
* New command-line option: -L (--check-symlink-times). On systems that
support symbolic links, if this option is given then GNU make will
use the most recent modification time of any symbolic links that are
used to resolve target files. The default behavior remains as it
always has: use the modification time of the actual target file only.
* The "else" conditional line can now be followed by any other valid
conditional on the same line: this does not increase the depth of the
conditional nesting, so only one "endif" is required to close the
conditional.
* All pattern-specific variables that match a given target are now used
(previously only the first match was used).
* Target-specific variables can be marked as exportable using the
"export" keyword.
* In a recursive $(call ...) context, any extra arguments from the outer
call are now masked in the context of the inner call.
* Implemented a solution for the "thundering herd" problem with "-j -l".
This version of GNU make uses an algorithm suggested by Thomas Riedl
<[email protected]> to track the number of jobs started in the
last second and artificially adjust GNU make's view of the system's
load average accordingly.
* New special variables available in this release:
- .INCLUDE_DIRS: Expands to a list of directories that make searches
for included makefiles.
- .FEATURES: Contains a list of special features available in this
version of GNU make.
- .DEFAULT_GOAL: Set the name of the default goal make will
use if no goals are provided on the command line.
- MAKE_RESTARTS: If set, then this is the number of times this
instance of make has been restarted (see "How Makefiles Are Remade"
in the manual).
- New automatic variable: $| (added in 3.80, actually): contains all
the order-only prerequisites defined for the target.
* New functions available in this release:
- $(lastword ...) returns the last word in the list. This gives
identical results as $(word $(words ...) ...), but is much faster.
- $(abspath ...) returns the absolute path (all "." and ".."
directories resolved, and any duplicate "/" characters removed) for
each path provided.
- $(realpath ...) returns the canonical pathname for each path
provided. The canonical pathname is the absolute pathname, with
all symbolic links resolved as well.
- $(info ...) prints its arguments to stdout. No makefile name or
line number info, etc. is printed.
- $(flavor ...) returns the flavor of a variable.
- $(or ...) provides a short-circuiting OR conditional: each argument
is expanded. The first true (non-empty) argument is returned; no
further arguments are expanded. Expands to empty if there are no
true arguments.
- $(and ...) provides a short-circuiting AND conditional: each
argument is expanded. The first false (empty) argument is
returned; no further arguments are expanded. Expands to the last
argument if all arguments are true.
* Changes made for POSIX compatibility:
- Only touch targets (under -t) if they have at least one command.
- Setting the SHELL make variable does NOT change the value of the
SHELL environment variable given to programs invoked by make. As
an enhancement to POSIX, if you export the make variable SHELL then
it will be set in the environment, just as before.
* On MS Windows systems, explicitly setting SHELL to a pathname ending
in "cmd" or "cmd.exe" (case-insensitive) will force GNU make to use
the DOS command interpreter in batch mode even if a UNIX-like shell
could be found on the system.
* On VMS there is now support for case-sensitive filesystems such as ODS5.
See the readme.vms file for information.
* Parallel builds (-jN) no longer require a working Bourne shell on
Windows platforms. They work even with the stock Windows shells, such
as cmd.exe and command.com.
* Updated to autoconf 2.59, automake 1.9.5, and gettext 0.14.1. Users
should not be impacted.
* New translations for Swedish, Chinese (simplified), Ukrainian,
Belarusian, Finnish, Kinyarwandan, and Irish. Many updated
translations.

that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.

update to gmake-3.80 Changes since 3.79.1 are: Version 3.80 * A new feature exists: order-only prerequisites. These prerequisites affect the order in which targets are built, but they do not impact the rebuild/no-rebuild decision of their dependents. That is to say, they allow you to require target B be built before target A, without requiring that target A will always be rebuilt if target B is updated. Patch for this feature provided by Greg McGary <[email protected]>. * For compatibility with SysV make, GNU make now supports the peculiar syntax $$@, $$(@D), and $$(@F) in the prerequisites list of a rule. This syntax is only valid within explicit and static pattern rules: it cannot be used in implicit (suffix or pattern) rules. Edouard G. Parmelan <[email protected]> provided a patch implementing this feature; however, I decided to implement it in a different way. * The argument to the "ifdef" conditional is now expanded before it's tested, so it can be a constructed variable name. Similarly, the arguments to "export" (when not used in a variable definition context) and "unexport" are also now expanded. * A new function is defined: $(value ...). The argument to this function is the _name_ of a variable. The result of the function is the value of the variable, without having been expanded. * A new function is defined: $(eval ...). The arguments to this function should expand to makefile commands, which will then be evaluated as if they had appeared in the makefile. In combination with define/endef multiline variable definitions this is an extremely powerful capability. The $(value ...) function is also sometimes useful here. * A new built-in variable is defined, $(MAKEFILE_LIST). It contains a list of each makefile GNU make has read, or started to read, in the order in which they were encountered. So, the last filename in the list when a makefile is just being read (before any includes) is the name of the current makefile. * A new built-in variable is defined: $(.VARIABLES). When it is expanded it returns a complete list of variable names defined by all makefiles at that moment. * A new command-line option is defined, -B or --always-make. If specified GNU make will consider all targets out-of-date even if they would otherwise not be. * The arguments to $(call ...) functions were being stored in $1, $2, etc. as recursive variables, even though they are fully expanded before assignment. This means that escaped dollar signs ($$ etc.) were not behaving properly. Now the arguments are stored as simple variables. This may mean that if you added extra escaping to your $(call ...) function arguments you will need to undo it now. * The variable invoked by $(call ...) can now be recursive: unlike other variables it can reference itself and this will not produce an error when it is used as the first argument to $(call ...) (but only then). * New pseudo-target .LOW_RESOLUTION_TIME, superseding the configure option --disable-nsec-timestamps. You might need this if your build process depends on tools like "cp -p" preserving time stamps, since "cp -p" (right now) doesn't preserve the subsecond portion of a time stamp. * Updated translations for French, Galician, German, Japanese, Korean, and Russian. New translations for Croatian, Danish, Hebrew, and Turkish. * Updated internationalization support to Gettext 0.11.5. GNU make now uses Gettext's "external" feature, and does not include any internationalization code itself. Configure will search your system for an existing implementation of GNU Gettext (only GNU Gettext is acceptable) and use it if it exists. If not, NLS will be disabled. See ABOUT-NLS for more information. * Updated to autoconf 2.54 and automake 1.7. Users should not be impacted.

Now by default the support of micro- and nano-second timestamp values provided by stat(2) is disabled: it causes grief even for package building. This is adjustable by the GMAKE_NSEC_TIMESTAMPS variable. Bump PKGREVISION.
Rename USE_BUILDLINK2_ONLY to USE_BUILDLINK2 for less verbosity. Also convert a few more packages to use the buildlink2 framework.
First pass at conversion of various packages to use the buildlink2 framework. Add many buildlink2.mk files to add to the framework. Please see buildlink2.txt for more details.
Introduce new framework for handling info files generation and installation.
Summary of changes:
- removal of USE_GTEXINFO
- addition of mk/texinfo.mk
- inclusion of this file in package Makefiles requiring it
- `install-info' substituted by `${INSTALL_INFO}' in PLISTs
- tuning of mk/bsd.pkg.mk:
removal of USE_GTEXINFO
INSTALL_INFO added to PLIST_SUBST
`${INSTALL_INFO}' replace `install-info' in target rules
print-PLIST target now generate `${INSTALL_INFO}' instead of `install-info'
- a couple of new patch files added for a handful of packages
- setting of the TEXINFO_OVERRIDE "switch" in packages Makefiles requiring it
- devel/cssc marked requiring texinfo 4.0
- a couple of packages Makefiles were tuned with respect of INFO_FILES and
makeinfo command usage
See -newly added by this commit- section 10.24 of Packages.txt for
further information.
Mark as USE_BUILDLINK_ONLY and move inclusion of buildlink.mk file to the end of the Makefile. Remove the commented-out USE_LIBINTL.
Whitespace changes only.
Convert to use buildlink.mk files.
add missing USE_LIBINTL
Install locale files to "${PKGLOCALEDIR}/locale" instead of hard coding
the path to "share/locale".
Update to new COMMENT style: COMMENT var in Makefile instead of pkg/COMMENT.
update to gmake 3.79.1 * .SECONDARY with no prerequisites now prevents any target from being removed because make thinks it's an intermediate file, not just those listed in the makefile. * New configure option --disable-nsec-timestamps will keep make from using sub-second timestamps on systems which support it. If your build process depends on proper timestamp-preserving behavior of tools like "cp -p" you might need this option, since "cp -p" (right now) doesn't preserve the sub-second portion of the timestamp.
Version 3.79 * GNU make optionally supports internationalization and locales via the GNU gettext (or local gettext if suitable) package. See the ABOUT-NLS file for more information on configuring GNU make for NLS. * Previously, GNU make quoted variables such as MAKEFLAGS and MAKEOVERRIDES for proper parsing by the shell. This allowed them to be used within make build scripts. However, using them there is not proper behavior: they are meant to be passed to subshells via the environment. Unfortunately the values were not quoted properly to be passed through the environment. This meant that make didn't properly pass some types of command line values to submakes. With this version we change that behavior: now these variables are quoted properly for passing through the environment, which is the correct way to do it. If you previously used these variables explicitly within a make rule you may need to re-examine your use for correctness given this change. * A new psuedo-target .NOTPARALLEL is available. If defined, the current makefile is run serially regardless of the value of -j. However, submakes are still eligible for parallel execution. * The --debug option has changed: it now allows optional flags controlling the amount and type of debugging output. By default only a minimal amount information is generated, displaying the names of "normal" targets (not makefiles) were deemed out of date and in need of being rebuilt. Note that the -d option behaves as before: it takes no arguments and all debugging information is generated. * The `-p' (print database) output now includes filename and linenumber information for variable definitions, to help debugging. * The wordlist function no longer reverses its arguments if the "start" value is greater than the "end" value. If that's true, nothing is returned. * Hartmut Becker provided many updates for the VMS port of GNU make. See the readme.vms file for more details.
Update "gmake" package to version 3.78.1. This version fixes numerous bugs discovered in version 3.77 and later.
Fix for `patch -F0' by eliminating patches
- - use --program-prefix="g" for make -> gmake
- - use '${SED}' to fix @dircategory
Remove unnecessary slash from master site list.
Updated master site list to handle the gnu ftp reorganization.
Fix CONFLICTS (remove redundancy, mostly)
The Grand Homepagification: - New, optional Makefile variable HOMEPAGE, specifies a URL for the home page of the software if it has one. - The value of HOMEPAGE is used to add a link from the README.html files. - pkglint updated to know about it. The "correct" location for HOMEPAGE in the Makefile is after MAINTAINER, in that same section.
Fix typo.
Update to gmake-3.77.
Miscellaneous cleanups after the automatic manual page handling changes.
Update package Makefiles for automatic manual page handling.
Introduce USE_GTEXINFO and INFO_FILES definitions to bsd.pkg.mk, and use them.
Use the bsd.pkg.mk and bsd.pkg.subdir.mk files in the pkgsrc tree. Remove redundant (and sometimes erroneous) comments.
upgrade GNU make to 3.76.1
Define OPSYS before using it; reported by Thorsten Frueauf
portlint: fix RCS Id, move MAINTAINER
Do not depend on "install-info", but on "${PREFIX}/bin/install-info",
to make sure we do have ${PREFIX}/info/dir (which comes with out
gtexinfo).
Add a (build) dependency on gtexinfo for NetBSD. Remove previous OS-dependent hack whereby we had no info files on NetBSD. Install the gmake info files by default.
Fix a typo when setting OPSYS with uname -s.
Add NetBSD RCS Ids. Use uname -s to work out the Operating System. FreeBSD has install-info and /usr/share/info/dir by default. NetBSD doesn't, so, for now, don't try to do this on NetBSD.
Initial import of FreeBSD devel ports into NetBSD packages system.
