The following short makefile demonstrates a feature/bug in Make 3.57.  The
shell script, mic, does not have a #!/bin/sh first line. When executed by
Make 3.57, it does not receive command line args other than $0. However,
mic2 does.  This problem arises with the move-if-change shell script that is
used in building GNU CC. (I use it for other things. The version in the GCC
stuff may have acquired a #!/bin/sh line by now.) SunPro Make does not
exhibit this behavior, as the sample output following the makefile shows.

----------cut here----------
tst : mic mic2
	./mic foo bar
	./mic2 baz bip

mic : FRC
	@echo 'echo Executing $$0' > mic
	@echo 'echo Arg 1 == $$1' >> mic
	@echo 'echo Arg 2 == $$2' >> mic
	@chmod +x mic

mic2 : FRC
	@echo '#!/bin/sh' > mic2
	@echo 'echo Executing $$0' >> mic2
	@echo 'echo Arg 1 == $$1' >> mic2
	@echo 'echo Arg 2 == $$2' >> mic2
	@chmod +x mic2

FRC :
----------cut here----------

Sample output:

    % /bin/make
    ./mic foo bar
    Executing ./mic
    Arg 1 == foo
    Arg 2 == bar
    ./mic2 baz bip
    Executing ./mic2
    Arg 1 == baz
    Arg 2 == bip
