Quite a lot of churn on style, but lots of
good work refactoring complicated functions
and lots more unit-tests.
Thanks mostly to rillig at NetBSD
Some interesting entries from ChangeLog
o .MAKE.{UID,GID} represent uid and gid running make.
o allow env var MAKE_OBJDIR_CHECK_WRITABLE=no to skip writable
checks in InitObjdir. Explicit .OBJDIR target always allows
read-only directory.
o add more unit tests for META MODE
Change-Id: I4d3bcf08b4c864d98b343f602efe5a75dbfa7a94
Lots of code refactoring, simplification and cleanup.
Lots of new unit-tests providing much higher code coverage.
All courtesy of rillig at netbsd.
Other significant changes:
o new read-only variable .SHELL which provides the path of the shell
used to run scripts (as defined by the .SHELL target).
o new debug option -dl: LINT mode, does the equivalent of := for all
variable assignments so that file and line number are reported for
variable parse errors.
From ChangeLog
* VERSION: 20180222
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o parse.c: avoid calling sysconf for every call to loadfile
* VERSION: 20180218
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o var.c: Var_Set handle NULL value anytime.
* VERSION: 20180212
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o parse.c: do not treat .info as warning with -W
* VERSION: 20171207
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o var.c: Var_Append use Var_Set if var not previously set
so that VAR_CMD is handled correctly.
Add a suitable unit-test.
* VERSION: 20171126
* aclocal.m4: use AC_LINK_IFELSE for AC_C___ATTRIBUTE__
since AC_TRY_COMPILE puts input inside main()
which upsets modern compilers.
* VERSION: 20171118
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o var.c: do not append to variable set on command line
add unit-test to catch this.

* VERSION: 20171028
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o main.c: ignore empty MAKEOBJDIR
* Makefile.config.in:
make @prefix@ @machine*@ and @default_sys_path@ defaults.
2017-10-05 Simon J. Gerraty <sjg@bad.crufty.net>
* VERSION: 20171005
* unit-tests/dotwait.mk: redirect stderr through pipe for more
consistent result on some platforms.
2017-08-13 Simon J. Gerraty <sjg@bad.crufty.net>
* machine.sh: entry for AIX
2017-08-12 Simon J. Gerraty <sjg@bad.crufty.net>
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): Move the setting of _MAKE_VERSION
to a file that can be included by configure as well as make.
This allows configure to set set _MAKE_VERSION in make-bootstrap.sh
2017-08-10 Simon J. Gerraty <sjg@bad.crufty.net>
* Makefile (_MAKE_VERSION): 20170810
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o meta.c: if target is in subdir we only need subdir name in
meta_name.
Interesting changes:
o meta.c: move handling of .MAKE.META.IGNORE_* to meta_ignore()
so we can call it before adding entries to missingFiles.
Thus we do not track files we have been told to ignore.
o meta_oodate: apply .MAKE.META.IGNORE_FILTER (if defined) to
pathnames, and skip if the expansion is empty.
Useful for dirdeps.mk when checking DIRDEPS_CACHE.
o meta.c: remove all missingFiles entries that match a deleted
dir.
o main.c: set .ERROR_CMD if possible.
