nope! it was a problem-source when the user mixed various GNU tools to
supplement for example their mingw installation with missing tools like,
diff, patch, sed, make etc...

will do that. i don't even need a sed script for that. a simple preprocessor
directive will take care of it. thanks for reporting the problem.

BTW! did you know that GNU make had a parameter that allows you to 'touch'
all files processed by make? quite useful to fool make into beleiving the
build process is complete and then only missing files or later altered files
will be rebuilt.
