This is probably old news to everyone else, but I just noticed it now. Make(1) under SunOS 4.0.3 doesn't handle VPATH. The string VPATH is in the binary, but something is broken. As far as I can see it doesn't pay any attention to it. Is it still broken in SunOS 4.1? Does anyone know where I can get a correctly working SPARC binary? I don't want to use GNU make and I'd rather not spend the incredible effort necessary to get 4.3BSD's make compiled. I want a version of Sun make that has this bug fixed. Thanks in advance for your time. Casey
