Sorry for dropping the ball on this patch.  Some make implementations
detect '#' as starting a comment even in the middle of a variable (Posix
warns about this), but I can't find an offending make now which does so
when the '#' is within a command.  Posix doesn't seem clear to me on
this issue however.  Oh well, I guess I'll take the patch.

And yes, pinging patches is certainly fine.

Thanks,
Ralf
