After upgrading cygwin dll to 1.3.16 from 1.3.12 I had the following
problem:
I'm using cygwin to build my project, in my makefile I'm creating
another makefile like this:
VAR1=a.o : a.c\n\tcc $$@
.
.
.
sometarget :
$(shell echo -e '$(VAR1)' >> somefile
before the upgrade this produced somefile with this lines in it:
a.o : a.c
<TAB> cc $@
after upgrading the tab before the 'cc $@' gone, and the lines
in somefile looks like this:
a.o : a.c
cc $@
and the make of the sub-makefile (somefile) fails,
I've noticed that if I'm adding a character
before the \t for example:
VAR1=a.o : a.c\nxxx\tcc $$@
it produces:
a.o : a.c
xxx cc $@
any ides ?
Thanks.
