Hmm, this test: ------------- HAVE_EVAL := NO $(eval HAVE_EVAL := YES)
ifeq "$(HAVE_EVAL)" "NO" $(error Your make does not support eval. You need GNU make >= 3.80) endif ------------- in testsuite/mk/boilerplate.mk is supposed to fail if running the testsuite would fail, so I don't know what's gone wrong there. If you work out what else is breaking then let me know and we can add a test for it.
eval works, but abspath does not!
Does make give the expected abspath error with this patch to testsuite/? hunk ./mk/boilerplate.mk 8 -$(error Your make does not support eval. You need GNU make >= 3.80) +$(error Your make does not support eval. You need GNU make >= 3.81) +endif + +ifeq "$(abspath /)" "" +$(error Your make does not support abspath.
