Update of bug #29403 (project make):
Status: None => Not A Bug
Open/Closed: Open => Closed
_______________________________________________________
Follow-up Comment #1:
The new behavior is intended, and is required by the POSIX standard for make.
Please see the NEWS file in the GNU make distribution and the GNU make manual
for more details.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
In order to comply with POSIX, the way in which GNU make processes
backslash-newline sequences in recipes has changed. If your makefiles
use backslash-newline sequences inside of single-quoted strings in
recipes you will be impacted by this change. See the GNU make manual
subsection "Splitting Recipe Lines" (node "Splitting Lines"), in
section "Recipe Syntax", chapter "Writing Recipe in Rules", for
details.
A simple fix is to put the backslashed text into a variable assignment then
use that variable instead of the literal string: backslash/newlines within
variable assignment still work as before.
