Re: Re: NetBSD error

It's perfectly all right to replace `cat cc-flags` with the more
conventional CFLAGS variable.  I did it to keep from having the same
noisy parameters repeated over and over and hiding Makefile activity.

The problem with cc-flags and quoting is probably a shell issue.
Perhaps the best way around it would be to modify the cc-flags
target in the Makefile to include single quotes.

Not sure what you're trying to do with this, there's an object file
missing in the command line.

: Stop.
