overriding recipe

[Warlich, Christof]

Hi,

is it possible to override a rule without getting the "overriding recipe" 
warning?

Some background on why I need that:

I'm having a generic Makefile that includes a User.mk to allow user specific 
settings
through variables and rules. The surrounding Makefile basically takes care to 
allow
multi-architecture builds as described in  
http://mad-scientist.net/make/multi-arch.html.

In this approach make reexecutes itself from a different directory, allowing to 
keep
the objects apart from the soures. My problem is that I need to see (some of) 
the
variables in User.mk in both of these instances of make, but I need to ignore 
any
rules in the initial make instance, allowing that they are only executed in the 
second
invocation of make, i.e. when being in the right directory.

Cheers,

Chris
