* Also create a new binary package, make-guile, which is identical to
the make package, but has built in support for Guile a a programming
langiage, and adds run time dependencies outside of libc.
(Closes: #747615, #747674).
* Bug fix#747615: "Please provide a version with Guile support
enabled", thanks to Jose Antonio Ortega Ruiz
* Bug fix#747674: "undeterministic build due to missing configure
arguments/build-conflicts", thanks to Bernhard R. Link

* When presented with a very very long command line (e.g. WebKit's linking
of libWebCore.la in current git), make fails to execute the command as
it doesn't split the command line to fit within the limits. There is a
patch used by people to solve this (gentoo, etc). Adam Conrad has
provided a patch to fix this. (Closes: #688601).
* Pre-4.0 make had an memory corruption issue that caused repeated
execution of a specific makefile to display the cirruption. Running
with make 4.0 does not show the issue. (Closes: #682895).
* recently, the Multi-Arch: foreign tag was added toth make binary
package. Jakub Wilk pointed out that this is not correct, some of the
make interfaces are actually architecture-dependent. Reverting that
change.
* Bug fix#688601: "fails to execute extraordinarily long command
lines", thanks to Daniel Stone
* Bug fix#682895: "incorrect variable handling and corruption", thanks
to Tim Spriggs
* Pull back some patches from upstream git that fix bugs. One of these
converts the mixed implicit and explicit rule error into a warning,
and that should give us a grace period to fix the Makefiles,
* Bug fix: "FTBFS with make 3.82 from experimental", thanks to Daniel
Schepler. This package was not reported broken in the archive rebuild:
see http://aws-logs.debian.net/ftbfs-logs/results-make4/ (Closes: #720686).
* Bug fix: "make 3.82: with -j tries to run receipes without
prerequisites yet done", thanks to Bernhard R. Link. This was not seen
in the archive rebuild, and the upstream report has ben closed a being
fixed in 4.0 (Closes: #722520).
* Bug fix: "run dh-autoreconf to update config.{sub,guess} and
{libtool,aclocal}.m4", thanks to Wookey. We now do indeed run
autoreconf. (Closes: #689626).
* Bug fix: "spurious circular dependency", thanks to Frank Heckenbach
Bug fixed in new version. (Closes: #669968).
* Bug fix: "make 3.82: fails to parse archive syntax", thanks to Andrew
Shadura (Closes: #675612).
* Bug fix: "binary package make lacks "Multi-Arch: foreign"
declaration", thanks to Helmut Grohne (Closes: #693926).
* Bug fix: "make 3.82 breaks kernel module build: 'mixed implicit
and normal rules' in linux-headers-*", thanks to Dean Loros
(Closes: #635317).
* Bug fix: "please package upstream version 4.0", thanks to Andrew
Shadura (Closes: #734387).
* Bug fix: "optionally echo all commands, even if preceded with @",
thanks to Vincent Lefevre (Closes: #451092).
* Bug fix: ""Make is a HUGE memory hog"", thanks to Matthias
Klose (Closes: #342726).
