 # As of 2020-08-09, the code in Var_Export is shared between the .export
 # directive and the .MAKE.EXPORTED variable.  This leads to non-obvious
 # behavior for certain variable assignments.

 # The following behavior is probably not intended.
-.MAKE.EXPORTED=                -env            # like .export-env
-.MAKE.EXPORTED=                -literal UT_VAR # like .export-literal PATH
+.MAKE.EXPORTED=                -env            # behaves like .export-env
+
+# If the value of .MAKE.EXPORTED starts with "-literal", make behaves like
+# a mixture of .export-literal and a regular .export.
+# XXX: This is due to a sloppy implementation, reusing code in places where
+# it is not appropriate.
+#
+# In Parse_DoVar, the code path for MAKE_EXPORTED is taken, calling Var_Export
+# in turn.  There, the code path for .export-literal is taken, and the
+# environment variable UT_VAR is set to ${UNEXPANDED}, as expected.
+# Later, in Compat_RunCommand, in the child process after vfork,
+# Var_ExportVars is called, which treats "-literal" as an ordinary variable
+# name, therefore exports it and also overwrites the previously exported
+# UT_VAR with the expanded value.
