>Description:

It seems that large numbers of SUPPORT_FILES can cause a situation where the
generated .INSTALL file has the line:

SUPPORT_FILES=""

rather than the intended list.

>How-To-Repeat:

(On NetBSD 2.0/i386, at least,) revert "sfiles.mk" in lang/sun-jre15 to rev
1.1, then "make".  See generated work/.INSTALL file.

>Fix:

Unknown.
