Hi

sorry for coming late to this thread. I was in holidays.

Hm, but it seems only the strawberry Perl version of make has this 
behaviour... it reminds me of the heuristics Perl uses to decide whether to 
execute a call to the 'system' built-in function directly or via shell.

Anyway, thanks for the analysis. I wonder why this is not a problem when 
compiling EPICS base. There are a number of rules in base that use 
redirection, but it seems these rules are not needed to build base itself?

If someone has an idea how to work around this problem by changing the 
sequencer build rules, I am minded to apply them.

Cheers
Ben
