Hello!

I found no newer Version on ftp.gnu.ai.mit.edu so I report this error:

Maybe the following is only a problem on apollo-workstations but i
don`t think so.

I just tried to use the environment variable MAKEFILES to read
two additional makefiles:

MAKEFILES = 'x y'
make

Now make tries to read the files 'y' and 'x y'  (x<blank>y) !!

I think the error is in read.c (read_all_makefiles).

The function find_next_token(&p, &length) returns
startaddress and length of the filename, but this
filename does NOT end with \0 but continues with <withspace> and the 
next filename!
