43 Patch doesn't work for me.\r
44 \r
45 Before patch:\r
46 \r
47         0:~/src/notmuch:(master)$ make\r
48         Use "make V=1" to see the verbose compile lines.\r
49           CC    notmuch-new.o\r
50           CXX   notmuch\r
51 \r
52 After patch:\r
53 \r
54         0:~/src/notmuch:(master)$ make \r
55         -e Use "make V=1" to see the verbose compile lines.\r
56           CC    debugger.o\r
57         -e   CC gmime-filter-reply.o\r
58         -e   CC notmuch.o\r
59 \r
60 It's a shame that simple things like "echo" aren't easy to use portably.\r
61 (And yes, I know that autoconf has a bunch of tests for echo, such as\r
62 how to get the behavior of "echo -n", etc.)\r
