make 'export' bug (in b19 still?)



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$
