as environment variables and should not be set on make's command
line. They happen to work accidentially as command line variables
too when none of the sub-makes wants to play games with them (because
make is putting command line variables into the environment and will
find them there later on). Makefile.inc1 wants to change
MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX. In this case one cannot set it on the command line.

environment variable and the .MAKEFLAGS and .MFLAGS target have the
same precedence as command line variable assignments.
to be executed even when -n is given on the command line to make. This is
very handy for calls to submakes.
This is slightly changed from the original patch as obtained from NetBSD.
The NetBSD variant prints lines which have both '+' and '@' when -n
is specified. The commited version always obeys '@'.
Bump MAKE_VERSION so Makefiles can use this conditionally.

Replace the use of '=' in conditionals in the examples
by the more correct '=='.
Clarify the example explaining that .for expansion takes place before
.if handling by showing the correct code instead of saying 'the other
way around'. Change a variable name there so the example is more parseable
to the human reader.

parsed. This makes the -C option DTRT.

but allows for regex. I removed NO_REGEX since no one could give a reason
to have it, and since we don't use make in bootstrap tools, it's not needed.
This is mostly added to synch up with NetBSD/OpenBSD so as to eliminate
roadblocks in the OpenPackages project (see http://www.openpackages.org/).
It's also quite useful, and costs us only about 3 kilobytes of space.
