Re: [bug #60798] Make does not compile with GCC 11.1.0

[David A. Wheeler]

     p[-1] = '\0';

Is this just a style warning being turned into an error?

That is, would this compile if the line was rewritten as:

*(p - 1) = ‘\0’;

Which means the same thing per the spec?

If the rewrite would fix it, I suggest doing the rewrite, to

reduce compilation problems.
