Subject: [PATCH] Document config.mak in INSTALL.
Date: Mon, 05 Dec 2005 10:38:30 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20348.1133807910@lotus.CS.Berkeley.EDU> (raw)


The existing config.mak should satisfy almost everyone...  You 
can change the prefix and other vars catch the new setting 
anyways.  I had forgotten that ?= acts as = (lazy value binding)
and as not := (immediate value binding).
