* Compiling GNU make now requires a conforming ISO C 1989 compiler and
standard runtime library.
* WARNING: Future backward-incompatibility!
Wildcards are not documented as returning sorted values, but up to and
including this release the results have been sorted and some makefiles are
apparently depending on that. In the next release of GNU make, for
performance reasons, we may remove that sorting. If your makefiles
require sorted results from wildcard expansions, use the $(sort ...)
function to request it explicitly.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
The POSIX standard for make was changed in the 2008 version in a
fundamentally incompatible way: make is required to invoke the shell as if

existing targets were provided in $?).
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Wildcards were not documented as returning sorted values, but the results
have been sorted up until this release.. If your makefiles require sorted
results from wildcard expansions, use the $(sort ...) function to request
it explicitly.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
In previous versions of make it was acceptable to list one or more explicit
targets followed by one or more pattern targets in the same rule and it
worked "as expected". However, this was not documented as acceptable and if
you listed any explicit targets AFTER the pattern targets, the entire rule
would be mis-parsed. This release removes this ability completely: make
will generate an error message if you mix explicit and pattern targets in
the same rule.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
As a result of parser enhancements, three backward-compatibility issues
exist: first, a prerequisite containing an "=" cannot be escaped with a
