Description quetschke 2006-11-18 16:36:42 UTC 
(Followup to issue 71701)

Mixing -S and -P2 on the command line creates problems.

This example makefile.mk:

- - - - - - - - - -
SHELL=/bin/sh
SHELLFLAGS=-c

my.inc :
	+echo "# MAXPROCESS=$(MAXPROCESS):" > my.inc

.INCLUDE : my.inc

all:
	+echo all
- - - - - - - - - -

Gives this error:

$ rm my.inc ; dmake.exe -S -P2 -r all
echo "# MAXPROCESS=2:" > my.inc
echo all
dmake:  Error: -- MAXPROCESS changed after a command was executed!

Please verify.

i'm not able to reproduce the error at all. so i have no way to verify...
tried linux/solaris/windows native/cygwin.
last resort: does it happen only on multicore machines with cygwin?
