The use of .error is a bug in this case. If someone sets USE_MOTIF in /etc/make.conf (which should _not_ have USE_* variables set, but ...), then 'make index' will fail, and probably 'make search' as well. The correct usage AFAICT is to set the IGNORE Makevar instead of using .error, in all cases. Is it really true that Eclipse is intended as a slave port of open-motif? Or is this just a case of trying to reuse common code? mcl
