The problem is that HP NonStop 'make' + treats a line like "AM_V_CC = $(am__v_CC_$(V))" as one that + expands a macro with the funny name am__v_CC_$(V instead of the + desired name am__v_CC_1 or am__v_CC_0, and since the funny macro + is not defined the line is equivalent to "AM_V_CC = )"; this + inserts a stray ")" when $(AM_V_CC) is used, which eventually + causes 'make' to fail. + + The basic idea is that instead of generating Makefile.in lines like + "AM_V_CC = $(am__v_CC_$(V))", we generate + "AM_V_CC = $(am__v_CC_@AM_V@)". We then AC_SUBST $(V) for @AM_V@ + in the usual case where `make' supports nested variables, + and substitute 1 (or 0) otherwise. Similarly for usages like + $(am__v_CC_$(AM_DEFAULT_VERBOSITY)). + + With this change, make implementations that doesn't grasp nested + variable expansions will still be able to run Makefiles generated + using the silent-rules option. They won't allow the user to + override the make verbosity at runtime through redefinition of + $(V) (as in "make V=0"); but this is still an improvement over not + being able to work at all. + + * NEWS: Document this. + * automake.in (define_verbose_var): When defining the variables, + use @AM_V@ rather than $(V), and use @AM_DEFAULT_V@ rather than + $(AM_DEFAULT_VERBOSITY). + * doc/automake.texi (Automake silent-rules Option): Explain new system. + * m4/silent.m4 (AM_SILENT_RULES): Check whether `make' supports + nested variables, and substitute AM_V and AM_DEFAULT_V accordingly. + * tests/silent-nested-vars.test: New test. + * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it. + 2011-12-24 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com> gitignore: use only one .gitignore file, in the top-level directory @@ -84,6 +84,13 @@ Bugs fixed in 1.11.0a: not used, `make' output no longer contains spurious backslash-only lines, thus once again matching what Automake did before 1.11. + - The `silent-rules' option now generates working makefiles even for + the uncommon `make' implementations that do not support the + nested-variables extension to POSIX 2008.
