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.
