Strange behaviour using the function $(dir ....)

[bhaskar . g]

Hi All,

I am using gmake 3.80 version. I have
this simple makefile to get the directory part of the files as mentioned
below.

D=d:/bg/123/ # change to /tmp/123 on
unix

A=src/1.c src/2.c src/3.c src/4.c
C=$(addprefix $(D),$(A))

all:
        @for
i in $(C); do \
        echo
$$i; \
        echo
$(dir $$i);\
        done

The results are as follows:
on Unix:

$gmake -f test.mk
/tmp/123/src/1.c
./
/tmp/123/src/2.c
./
/tmp/123/src/3.c
./
/tmp/123/src/4.c
./

On Windows:

gmake -f D:\bg.mk
d:/bg/123/src/1.c
./
d:/bg/123/src/2.c
./
d:/bg/123/src/3.c
./
d:/bg/123/src/4.c
./

Am I missing something or is this a
bug.

Thanks & Regards,
Bhaskar G
