On the second thought, could it be that man page & binary are out of
sync for some reason? It is hard to believe though as -C option
parsing appears in src/usr.bin/make/main.c, line 185...
178 #ifdef REMOTE
179 # define OPTFLAGS "BD:E:I:L:PSV:Xd:ef:ij:km:nqrstv"
180 #else
181 # define OPTFLAGS "BD:E:I:PSV:Xd:ef:ij:km:nqrstv"
182 #endif
183 rearg: while((c = getopt(argc, argv, OPTFLAGS)) != -1) {
184 switch(c) {
185 case 'C':
186 if (chdir(optarg) == -1)
187 err(1, "chdir %s", optarg);
188 break;
...but is omitted from OPTFLAGS (lines 179 & 181). Is that the reason
of make carping when presented w/ -C option?
