Can anyone tell me whether or not gnu make provides support for the
tilde (~) rules as used by SCCS or not as the FreeBSD 'make' does not.

As an aside the FreeBSD make seems very non-standard from the versions
of 'make' that I have always used in the past and certainly doesn't look
like the 'make' described in ORA. Why is that ??
