Maybe. I chose TARGETS because the loop in question was: .for target in amd64 arm i386 ... Also, TARGETS is in line with TARGET and/or TARGET_ARCH, which relate closely to MACHINE and MACHINE_ARCH. It seems a good choice to me... I don't mind if people change it to a different name, whether more intuitive to promote its use or less intuitive to limit/demote its use. I just like having the functionality because it allows me to use make universe more often :-) -- Marcel Moolenaar xcllnt@mac.com
