RE: patch for 234860, was Re: [cdt-dev] How to create a CDTStandard Make Project

Hi Wieant,

My original opinion was very similar to yours, thinking that
this is something the ISV's can fix up.

But then, there are also LOTS of CDT users who take the 
verbatim free stuff off Eclipse.org -- lots of students,
or private programmers. While agree that Eclipse is a
famework for ISV's, I think that it's equally important 
to serve the vanilla user community since that's how the
Community grows.

Also, remember that I've originally seen this problem when
trying to create a "CDT Standard Makefile project" which is
not necessarily related to GNU at all, so just fixing up the
GNU templates is not sufficient IMHO.

Cheers,
