It does invoke makesetup (that's how the Makefile in Modules gets
|
|
written). I'm also running FreeBSD 2.2.8, so it may be a bug in /bin/sh
|
|
that has been subsequently fixed... The quick test is to try this on
|
|
your 3.0 machine
|
|
|
|
$ read line
|
|
some text here\
|
|
|
|
On my 2.2.8 machine after I hit return after the \, I get a command line
|
|
prompt, not a "blank prompt" that would mean that the read wasn't done.
|
|
|
|
In either case, I was able to get the thing built without the patch, I
|
|
just had to type make -e SHELL=/usr/local/bin/bash, but that sucks.
