                 Summary: Pattern-specific private variable addition doesn't
work

    _______________________________________________________

Details:

I'm using GNU Make version 3.82 + the fix for bug#32872 (thanks for that).
Although the specific case in bug#32872 is fixed, I still see a problem
relating to pattern specific private variables.

With the following makefile (also attached):

%: P += pattern
%: private PP += pattern private
all: S += static
all: private SP += static private
all: ; @echo P=$(P); echo PP=$(PP); echo S=$(S); echo SP=$(SP)

I get the following output when building all:

P=pattern
PP=
S=static
SP=static private

However I expected to see:

P=pattern
PP=pattern private
S=static
SP=static private

It seems that addition with pattern-specific variables doesn't work if that
variable is marked as private.  It does work if the variable is not private or
if using static target-specific variables, so I think the pattern-specific
private variable addition should also work.

regards,
Rob.
