Hy
I found a BUG in gmake while calling the shell function.
The bug may appear only on N(ew)T(rash) and on 95.
In my makefile, i have the following assignment:
SPECIAL_SOURCE=$(shell echo magic ; echo tragic)
check:
@echo $(SPECIAL_SOURCE)
Calling make check would print out only "tragic". I guess the
magic has been overwritten, because of a \r, that toss back
the internal write pointer back to the initial position.
Iff you exchange the assignment by a
SPECIAL_SOURCE=`echo magic ; echo tragic`
everything works fine. I can not promise to fix it, cause i am running
out of time with my project.

I don't see this problem using a current snapshot so possibly it's fixed.
