 Sorry, I thought I had mentioned that my test was on -current as of  
 2008/10/05.
 
 My tests on the netbsd-4 branch are below and also show empty  
 via_shell and via_assignment values for the before case.  The only  
 place I've seen it work is here on my OSX laptop with Apple's bsdmake.
 
 09:54 [28] $ make -f src/tvarset.mk COMPILERS='from command line'
 before:
    via_shell:
    via_assignment:
    via_for_loop: from command line
 
 after:
    via_shell: from command line
    via_assignment: from the Makefile
    via_for_loop:  from the Makefile
 
 direct use:
    from command line
 09:54 [29] $ COMPILERS='from the environment' make -f src/tvarset.mk
 before:
    via_shell:
    via_assignment:
    via_for_loop: from the environment
 
 after:
    via_shell: from the Makefile
    via_assignment: from the Makefile
    via_for_loop:  from the Makefile
 
 direct use:
    from the Makefile
 09:55 [30] $ COMPILERS='from the environment with -e' make -e -f src/ 
 tvarset.mk

    via_shell:
    via_assignment:
    via_for_loop: from the environment with -e
