Patch to allow GNU make-3.80 to use spaces instead of tabs

When you create Makefiles, the recipies (commands used to build a target) require that the first character on the line be a tab. This can be annoying depending on which editor that you happen to use.

This patch allows leading spaces to be used instead.


make-3.80-spaces.patch    Patchfile with the required changes (2.5Kb)

make-3.80-spaces.tar.gz    make-3.80 source tarball with patch applied (1.3Mb)

I put

 #if 1 // DHylands
     ...
 #endif

around the changes, just so I could find them easier in the patched file.
