Package: make
Version: 3.81-7
Severity: normal

When I run make distcheck on WebKitGTK+ this is what I have:

k...@couve ~/s/W/W/Release> make distcheck
{ test ! -d "webkit-1.1.22" || { find "webkit-1.1.22" -type d ! -perm -200 
-exec chmod u+w {} ';' && rm -fr "webkit-1.1.22"; }; }
test -d "webkit-1.1.22" || mkdir "webkit-1.1.22"
make: execvp: /bin/bash: Argument list too long
make: *** [distdir] Error 127

This has been brought up in make's bugs mailing list:

     http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.make.bugs/4219

I've been using a custom built package that includes that patch. I
think a fix has been added upstream already, but am not really
sure. Can we get a fix in the Debian package to make my life happier?
=)

Thanks,
