(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately got no response at
the time.)
I'm not quite sure I understand what you're referring to here, but if
the point is that "echo true" returns "true", and we're then checking
whether that's equal to " true" instead of "true", that doesn't seem to
be the case -- in my testing GNU make seems to just ignore spaces after
the comma. Perhaps this depends on the make version?
Or do I misunderstand what the reported bug here is?
