Hello,
we have a small problem with GNU make 3.54 that you may be interested in:
First the output of make -v:
einstein:luik(45)> gmake -v -f /dev/null
GNU Make version 3.54, by Richard Stallman and Roland McGrath.

Contents of Makefile:
MSG = echo umu
all:
echo all made
Makefile::
$(MSG)
Call GNU make with: make MSG="" and it will loop endless (trying to
update its Makefile I think). This should not happen.
