Hello bug-gnu-utils,
I discovered a very minor problem with make-3.56 that I thought you might
like to know about.  When building an archive, as in the following script,
one file that seems to be an "intermediate" file is not removed.  Note
that intrp2.o is not removed upon successful completion of make.

script:
--------------
[120]% ls
total 2
   1 Makefile	   1 SCCS/

[121]% make
sccs get  SCCS/s.fulnam.f
1.3
59 lines
fortran -OM -O -DAS -alt  -c fulnam.f 
ar rv libutility.a fulnam.o
a - fulnam.o
ar: creating libutility.a
sccs get  SCCS/s.intrp2.f
1.4
124 lines
fortran -OM -O -DAS -alt  -c intrp2.f 
ar rv libutility.a intrp2.o
a - intrp2.o
ranlib libutility.a
rm  fulnam.f fulnam.o intrp2.f

[122]% ls
total 7
   1 Makefile		   2 intrp2.o	   1 SCCS/		   3 libutility.a

[123]%

Here is Makefile:
-------------------------
# %W% %G%  Makefile for utility routines

FFLAGS= -g
FFLAGS= -OM -O -DAS -alt

# library name
LIB = libutility.a

# fulnam generates a full pathname from a dir, base, and extension
# intrp2 interpolates a two-d array over some region
OBJ = ${LIB}(fulnam.o) ${LIB}(intrp2.o)

# make the library using GNU make's archive-handling smarts
${LIB}: $(OBJ)
	ranlib ${LIB}

# install library
.PHONY: install
install: ${LIB}
	install ${LIB} ../lib

# testing facility for intrp2
tester: tester.o intrp2.o
	${FC} ${FFLAGS} tester.o intrp2.o -o tester.exe && touch tester


----------------------------------
Thanks for the nice software!
