Re: [bug #21939] Definition of mkdir_p in Makefiles is bad when using in

    mkdir_p = $(top_builddir)/./install-sh -c -d

    The big problem with this is that top_builddir is defined after
    mkdir_p

Definition-before-use is not required with make assignments like this.

    This causes "make install" to fail.

What was the actual failure?
