I fetched an updated version of make3.75.  It does not want to run my
makefiles that work fine with v3.73.  The problems appear to be
related to the use of redirection.  I have constructs such as these

define loop_projects
echo for i in $(SUBPROJ) >> sh.in
echo  do >> sh.in
echo   setenv ii $$i >> sh.in
echo   if [ -d $$ii ] >> sh.in
echo    then >> sh.in
echo     echo --- $$ii >> sh.in
echo     (cd $$ii; $(MAKE) -s $@@ ) >> sh.in
echo   fi >> sh.in
echo done >> sh.in
endef

They don't work in the latest version.  The sh scipt is not created.
