This is less than ideal, as it will revert to the old form for 3.82,

considering that the version might not actually be a number, e.g.
3.81-r1 or similar).

That works, but ugly and doesn't cover the future is probably not what we want to do. (I saw some .1 versions in the make downloads)

I'd be happy with the unconditional pipe and recommending to developers to upgrade their make and not worrying about the 1-shot user builds.

I wonder what version other linux distros are at?

Ugh, all my machines use 3.80

Debian 3.1, Fedora 5, MacOSX Tiger

BUT I've been conservative with my upgrades, leading to package databases that are no longer actively maintained. Debian 4.0 is the current stable, and it's at make 3.81-2. Fedora 7 also uses 3.81.

So if Apple would just update the Dev Tools, we wouldn't need to install our own, but that's (I'm guessing) waiting for the new OS release.

I guess I should find some time for upgrades.

Cheers,
Scott
