OOPS. Let's try this again and see if my fingers will listen this time...
Macro substitution only seems to work only for final strings. Thusly:
bar = food.c foo.c boo.c
list1 = $(bar:o.c=x.y)
will result in
$(list1) <==> food.c fox.y box.y
However
bar = food.c foo.c boo.c
list1 = $(bar:fo=r)
Does NOT result in
$(list1) <==> rod.c ro.c boo.c
Just as a guess, it looks like it could be a problem with doing a strcmp
rather than a strncmp...
Anyway, if anyone has a fix, I would *greatly* appreciate it if they could
send me a copy via email. We are running plain vanilla SysV3.{1,2}
