to override @-prefixed commands in Makefiles. It is especially useful for
debugging ports and/or complex Makefiles in such a manner that is basically
a last resort, but is quite effective if the output is well-handled.
I'll update the manpage after dinner. ;-)

make(1) uses sysctlbyname() to find out if it is running on a PC98
machine. This check has been added on 1998/9/9. The MIB variable was
added on 1998/8/31. At that time __FreeBSD_version was 300003. So,
only perform the check *if* __FreeBSD_version is defined and if it's
greater than 300003.
For the record: sysctlbyname was added on 1997/5/30 so this change
automaticly handles that...
that -E only operates for a specified variable. Useful since the -e option
will often pull-in many unwanted variable overrides (esp. in a make world
situation). Uses include overriding BINOWN (which cannot be done by normal
methods or through abuses of MAKEFLAGS) or likely for ports to honour CFLAGS
(provided they're running on a system whose make(1) has this option).
compiled in default in case it isn't defined. This is needed to make
cross compilation work in some edge cases. It also makes cross
compiling on FreeBSD other BSD's easier as well.

other, less advanced architecutres. This should minorly help porting
efforts of FreeBSD. I've done several make worlds since this came up
with this change, as well as debugging several interesting nits with
-V (which is the only thing this change will affect really).
No one has said this would be a bad thing, so given the dearth of comments
I decided to add it, as its an important step towards getting "make world"
'parallel-ized'.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
parse.c(1.9) was:
revision 1.9
date: 1996/09/12 03:03:25; author: bde; state: Exp; lines: +7 -6
Fixed handling of `!=' assignment. Don't warn if the shell's output is
null, but warn if there was an error reading it.
Suggested by: Bruce Evans <bde@zeta.org.au>
- Add the .PHONY, .PARALLEL, and .WAIT directives
- Added the -B and -m commandline flags
- misc. man page cleanups
- numerous job-related enhancements
- removed unused header file (bit.h)
- add util.c for functions not found in other envs.
- and a few coordinated whitespace changes

$(.CURDIR}/obj search while retaining compatability of new
prefix with cwd for the current source tree builds.
.TARGETOBJDIR has been removed from make and CANONICALOBJDIR set in
bsd.obj.mk
The builtin object directory searching is defined specifically as:
If MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX is defined, the search order is
${MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX}${.CURDIR}
${.CURDIR}
Else if MAKEOBJDIR is defined, the search order is
${MAKEOBJDIR}

Otherwise, default to the search order
${.CURDIR}/obj.`uname -m`
$(.CURDIR}/obj

problems in the process:
1. Quoting should work properly now. In particular, Chet's reported bash
make problem has gone away.
2. A lot of memory that just wasn't being free'd after use is now freed.
This should cause make to take up a LOT less memory when dealing with
archive targets.
3. Give proper credit to Adam de Boor in a number of files.
