Stop. Heck, *ANY* UNIX box will say that if you use GNU "make"; blame that one on the GNU folk, not Sun. The "make" that comes with SunOS 4.x and SunOS 5.x says: make: Fatal error: Don't know how to make target `love' so *that's* the one you can blame on Sun. >For fun one afternoon I hacked make to >offer the TECO behavior.
