The problem is that when make executes this rule it executes "gentbl" rather than "./gentbl". This causes the command to fail if you do not have "." in your path. Make-3.79.1 is apparently being too clever in expanding file names. I think this is a make bug. Until the make bug is fixed, I have worked around the problem by replacing the rule with: $(obj)/sm_tbl_%: $(obj)/gentbl PATH=$(obj):$$PATH $< Adam J.
