[bug #56895] Cannot build make due to compiler warnings/failures

[Paul D. Smith]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #56895 (project make):

The failure for find_in_given_path() is because one version of that function
was pushed to gnulib, then I pushed my changes to use it to GNU make, then
another version of that function with a different calling signature was pushed
to gnulib so if you use gnulib HEAD it won't compile anymore.

I have a fix but I'm working through some more details on how this function
should work with Bruno.  Should push today.

The compile errors for getopt I'm not excited about applying because getopt,
like glob, are shipped with GNU make but not actually part of GNU make.

I added some comments in README.git that recommend compiling with MAKE_CFLAGS=
on the make command line if you don't have a fully modern GCC/GNU lib/etc.
system.

I will look at the read.c change.
