This make file core dumps on my system. (DG AViiON DGUX 4.10)
skr:; echo $(word 5, foo bar baz dcdc ed wed wed wed wed wed )
The reason seams to be a free of the wrong pointer in function.c. Here
is my fix.
diff function.c function.c.org
879,880c879
< p3 = expand_argument (p + 1, end);
< p = p3;
---
> p = expand_argument (p + 1, end);
901c900
< free (p3);
---
> free (p);
Another smaller bug.
If patsubst is used without a % in the pattern as in the following makefile.
all:; echo $(patsubst /,, $(dir doo/ddd))
On my system make loops on this makefile and takes all my memory...
I would be nice if it would generate a error message instead.
