Summary 0001723: Re-check whether POSIX make is still a subset of almost all implementations
Description Line 105509 says:
> Because the syntax specified for the make utility is, by and large, a subset of the syntaxes accepted by almost all versions of make, [...]

If this statement still holds (even after defining immediate-expansion macros, the '::=' and ':::=' macro definition operators, the lazily updated include files, and probably more), mention these features to make the statement less convincing.

If this statement doesn't hold anymore, reword it to reflect reality.
Desired Action .

 Change:
Because the syntax specified for the make utility is, by and large, a subset of the syntaxes accepted by almost all versions of make, it was decided that it would be counter-productive to change the name.
to:
Because the syntax specified for the make utility was, by and large, a subset of the syntaxes accepted by almost all versions of make when the original IEEE Std 1003.2-1992 shell and utilities standard was being developed, it was decided that it would be counter-productive to change the name.
