Makefiles contain tabs causing "commands commence" error

           Summary: Makefiles contain tabs causing "commands commence" error
           Product: Xerces-C++
           Version: 2.1.0
          Platform: Sun
        OS/Version: Solaris
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Build
        AssignedTo: xerces-c-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: nmerritt@peregrine.com


Executing gmake after successful execution of runConfigure gives the error 
message "Makefile.incl:511: *** commands commence before first target.  Stop."
The cause is tab characters in Makefile.incl instead of blanks to indent some 
nested ifeq / else sequences.  A similar problem exists in 2.0 with the 
util/Makefile file. Removing the tabs causes the error 
message "Makefile.incl:577: *** missing `endif'.  Stop."  Removing all tabs and 
spaces in front of "ifeq" "else" and "endif" statements seems to fix the 
problem.
