Thanks. I poked around in the docs and couldn't find any way to shut off the warnings without also suppressing all echoing of commands (-s, BTW). I don't think its possible to fix this at all. If I'm reading the docs right, if I changed it to: TEST_VERBOSE += 0 and one did "make test TEST_VERBOSE=1" you'd wind up with "10" So I'm going to declare dmake braindead on this issue and move on. -- Michael G Schwern [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pobox.com/~schwern/ It's Tobacco time!
