Comment (by alex-free):

 Replying to [comment:2 kencu]:
 > there are many ports that specify gmake for the build.cmd in the
 portfile. I put it in, or others have, when we see it is needed, like
 this:
 > {{{
 > plarform darwin 8 {
 >     depends_build-append port:gmake
 >     build.cmd   gmake
 > }
 > }}}
 >
 > For a while I also made such a symlink on my Tiger machines, but I did
 eventually come across some ports that actually would not build on Tiger
 because gmake was too new ! So I agree with adding it where it is needed.

 > Welcome! I like Tiger, and have several machines running it around here.
 Thousands of ports build on Tiger; I recently got {{{octave}}} running on
 Tiger. Don't miss out on TenFourFox (not a port in MacPorts at present, a
 browser you can download).

 Wow, I didn't expect a response from you @kencu ! Just a few minutes ago I
 used your GLEW from TigerPorts, I'm installing all this stuff to see if I
 can compile my fork of SM64EX (already working on Leopard) for Tiger
 https://github.com/sm64pc/sm64ex . Thanks for all your work. I was
 wondering, how do you have Tiger Ports setup in your MacPorts config
 files?

 Now that I know what the standard way is to specify gmake, I'm more then
 happy to look at the MacPorts documentation and create some patches for
 the affected mingw-w64 ports.
