+# This series of test is here because GNU make 3.81 will *not* use MAKEFLAGS
+# to set additional flags in the current Makfile ( see:
+# http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?20501 ), although the make manual says it
+# should ( see: http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html#Options_002fRecursion )
+# so we have to work it around by calling ourselves back if needed
+
+# So why do we need not to use the built rules and variables? Because we
+# need to generate scripts/crosstool-NG.sh from scripts/crosstool-NG.sh.in
+# and there is a built-in implicit rule '%.sh:' that has neither a pre-requisite
+# nor a command associated, and that built-in implicit rule takes precedence
+# over our non-built-in implicit rule '%: %.in', below.
