Err.. Fritz: It _IS_ passed down as the "cd ./src; gmake -n" shows you.
Instead I guess it's a bug in GNU Make, because with BSD Make it works as
expected. But what we additionally should do is to pass $(MFLAGS) (here ==
'-n') also to src/support/mkcert.sh, although it doesn't solve your problem.
As I said, the Makefile is correct. With the following you can see the GNU
Make bug:
| rse@en1:/e/modssl/src/mod_ssl/pkg.apache/src
| :> cat m
| a:
| echo "$(FOO)"
| b:
| echo "$(MAKE)"
| rse@en1:/e/modssl/src/mod_ssl/pkg.apache/src
| :> gmake -n -f m a
| echo ""
| rse@en1:/e/modssl/src/mod_ssl/pkg.apache/src
| :> gmake -n -f m b
| echo "gmake"
| gmake
| rse@en1:/e/modssl/src/mod_ssl/pkg.apache/src
| :>
I'll forward this to the GNU Make maintainer.
