Well, it is not what he was asking, but... maybe an acceptable solution, useful
in other situations, would be, to filter the output of make through some Perl
script. I do this myself as a routine matter. When people ask, why do you
have a wrapper make.bat and not just call "make.exe" directly, I say, calling
programs directly is like riding a horse without a saddle, it is possible...,
but painful and not fun.
So I have a wrapper, in which I prepare the call to make, and then take the
output out of make and do whatever I want with it, for example, if make is
called with parallel option, I save the errors output for the end, or
suppress/interpret any error messages which my users find too cryptic.

a way to suppress printing out this command as its being executed?
There is no way, short of editing the code, to silence that message
unfortunately.
