If we decide to take this change I think we should reduce it to a single #define, such as HAVE_W32_SPAWN or similar, as we did with the HAVE_DOS_PATHS, set it in one place based on __EMX__ etc., then use that single macro where we want to check for spawn() in the code. _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
