Well, I think I am just unlucky.  There are many times, that I follow
a (free) software's document but do not get expected result.  If I had
enough time and knowledge, I would like to track them down and post
with patches.  But sadly I cannot.  Hope some day fortune would come
with me.

Anyway, I now understand that what I posted is not a bug, since it is
not Make's business.  Thank you again for the information.

Regards,
