I have come accross a bug in Cygwin B20.1's make
utility
After trying a little, I found the differnce can
be expressed with the follwing makefile.
-----------------------------------
# mt.mak -- test make
all:
echo \"hello\"
-----------------------------------
my results are as follows.
gmake is an older cygwin make. (it loads cygwin.dll)
both are version 3.75
For make in cygwin b20.1
$ make -f mt.mak
echo \"hello\"
\\""hello\\""
For make from an ealier version of cygwin (B19?)
$ make -f mt.mak
echo \"hello\"
"hello"
From Linux make 3.76.1
$ make -f mt.mak
echo \"hello\"
"hello"
How do I submit this bug?
Does anyone have a workaround?
