Hi Tim,

Sorry I dropped the ball...

Which is what I meant.  So are you saying it work as (I) expected?

I'm using 4.2.1, and it does what I meant: -p prints the rules,
and -q (which is --question, not --quiet) avoids that we
fired a rule (i.e., "make -q" does not run "make all").

So I'm just clueless here.  I don't know what to do to address
your issue.

Are you running "make syntax-check" on a configured builddir?
