| |
Some shells (bash 2.x specifically) don't like environment variables with dashes in them. This patch makes them not exported. This problem doesn't show up in the other makefiles because they do not export all their variables to the environment like the toplevel Makefile does. This is also the root of the problem with xargs.
Linus, this is a resend of the patch to you. I'm not certain it made it to you the first time.
