Hi!

I have a strange problem linked with make(1)

Consider the following Makefile:
---------------------------------------------------------------
COMPS=3Daa ab ac
AA=3Daa

VAR1=3D${COMPS:Maa}
VAR2=3D${COMPS:M${AA}}

.for COMP in ${AA}
VAR3=3D${COMPS:M${COMP}}
.endfor
---------------------------------------------------------------

Now, running make(1) gives:
% make -V VAR1
aa
% make -V VAR2
}
% make -V VAR3
aa

Results for VAR2 seems quite strange for me. It looks like
${COMP}!=3D${AA}

So, the question: is make(1) broken, or it's my misunderstanding?

Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks!
