Message-ID: <a6mai9$6kl$2@main.gmane.org> (raw)
i notice in some guile makefiles:
SOME-COMMAND > $@ || { rm $@; false; }
can this be replaced equiavalently w/ simply:
SOME-COMMAND > $@
? won't make(1) automatically remove $@ if SOME-COMMMAND fails?
is this some kind of kludge for broken make programs?
