[Bug 1316024] Re: Sync make-dfsg 4.0-5 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

[Michael Terry]

This bug was fixed in the package make-dfsg - 4.0-5
Sponsored for Dmitry Shachnev (mitya57)

---------------
make-dfsg (4.0-5) unstable; urgency=low

  * When presented with a very very long command line (e.g. WebKit's linking
    of libWebCore.la in current git), make fails to execute the command as
    it doesn't split the command line to fit within the limits. There is a
    patch used by people to solve this (gentoo, etc). Adam Conrad has
    provided a patch to fix this.  (Closes: #688601).
  * Pre-4.0 make had an memory corruption issue that caused repeated
    execution of a specific makefile to display the cirruption. Running
    with make 4.0 does not show the issue. (Closes: #682895).
  * recently, the Multi-Arch: foreign tag was added toth make binary
    package.  Jakub Wilk pointed out that this is not correct, some of the
    make interfaces are actually architecture-dependent. Reverting that
    change.
  * Bug fix #688601: "fails to execute extraordinarily long command
    lines", thanks to Daniel Stone
  * Bug fix #682895: "incorrect variable handling and corruption", thanks
    to Tim Spriggs
