While chatting with David I made the remark that I was using something that might (ever) be a reason why things would work for me, but not for others. In case that would be relevant I wanted to post it here, for other devs to take notice of :).
HEXAGON requires to set a PATH in your environment. But in that path are executables that also exist for other targets. So, I think that one should not set that PATH when not compiling for HEXAGON.
Therefore I turned my ‘make’ into a bash function:
function make
{
VARS=“j=8”
while true
do
case $1 in
j=)
VARS="$1"
;;
=)
VARS+=" $1"
;;
)
break
;;
esac
shift
done
case $1 in

where pre_path and del_path are something that I have in my environment by default:
no_path ()
{
eval “case :$${2-PATH}: in :$1:) return 1;; *) return 0;; esac”
}
pre_path ()
{
[ -d ${1:-.} ] && no_path $* && eval ${2:-PATH}="$1:$${2:-PATH}"
}
del_path ()
{
no_path $* || eval ${2:-PATH}=eval echo :'$'${2:-PATH}: | sed -e "s;:$1:;:;g" -e "s;^:;;" -e "s;:\$;;"
}
