Summary: Make exits silently

Initial Comment:
Platform: Solaris 8
  gcc 2.95.3
  gnu make (or Sol8 make - same effect with both)

"./configure" succeeds.
running "make" produces nothing.

Reverted to 1.95.1, works fine.

I'm suspicious that the reporter was actually using GNU make
here.  I've changed the Makefile.in (revision 1.19) so this
problem should not be catching anyone anymore.

No idea. We'll have a simpler system shortly, and can try 
that.

I'm very surprised that you're having difficulties even with
GNU make; can you please double-check that?  I observed the
same problem with Sun make (Solaris 8, but I think any
version will do); it doesn't seem to understand the .PHONY
directives in the makefile.  GNU make worked fine for me,
though.

Greg, any wisdom here?
