3 Alrighty, this one had me stumped for a while:
9 DIRD=dirD# immediate comment
10 DIRE= dirE# immediate comment
12 DIRG=dirG # (dirF has a trailing space too)
13 FILE = a # more spaces here
15 make : $(DIRA)/$(FILE) $(DIRB)/$(FILE) $(DIRC)/$(FILE) $(DIRD)/$(FILE) $(DIRE)/$(FILE) $(DIRF)/$(FILE) $(DIRG)/$(FILE)
30 Apparently bonus whitespace (normally before a comment or after an
31 equals sign) in variable definitions is stripped from the front of a
32 definition, but not the back. You have been warned ;).
