Hi,

I'm curious as to whether the following make bug will still exist in b19
(or if there is an existing patch that fixes it in b18)?

Thanks,

CYGWIN32(b18) behavior:

    bash$ export FOOBAR="set by bash"
    bash$ cat Makefile
    
    export FOOBAR="set by make"
    
    echoit:
            @env | egrep FOOBAR
    bash$ make
    FOOBAR=set by bash
    bash$
    
LINUX behavior:

    bash$ export FOOBAR="set by bash"
    bash$ cat Makefile
    
    export FOOBAR="set by make"
    
    echoit:
            @env | egrep FOOBAR
    bash$ make
    FOOBAR="set by make"
    bash$
