I'm not sure what the first parenthetical sentence means, but this bug
is known and has been fixed in the CVS sources.

I think I can send you a patch if you like, or you can just get the
version of GNU make in CVS.

  rb>    $ make t
  rb>    [ 2]

  rb> [That space shouldn't be there.] BUT the folowing crashes:

  rb>    $ make m=blah
  rb>    make: expand.c:489: allocated_variable_append: Assertion 
`current_variable_set_list->next != 0' failed.
  rb>    Aborted (core dumped)

Both of the above are fixed (the extra space and the crash).
