Hi,

Does anyone have GNU MAKE that builds? I've tried the one on the most recent
freeware (V8) and it's a mess.

Here is the GNU MAKE from the current GNV, with quick hacks to make it compile and link on OpenVMS 8.2 using the HP C 7.x compilers.

It is still a mess. I did not do any testing on it other than to see if it would print the version banner.

If I were to do anything with gnu make, I would probably first port the current bash to VMS, and then port the current gnu make, and set up both of them to use the virtual memory pipes that I put in gnv bash.

Both GNV bash and make leave files in the SYS$LOGIN: directory sometimes. The files are from some simulating pipes using temporary files which are not cleaned up. The files are name SH?????.;* and MAKE????.:*
