This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------hbQQNN894zDpWGcolLxBpuDL Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit GNU Make now handles variable substitutions differently, see the discussion here: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?65533 This causes it to sometimes fire exponentially more sub-processes than before. Some other ports that use a lot of variable substitutions in a particular way would also be affected, but science/nwchem is acutely affected, to the point that it times out. I will add devel/gmake43 to remedy this situation.
