Subject: 26.1; eshell/make falls back to *make
Date: Thu, 23 Aug 2018 17:51:26 +0200

Starting with emacs -Q I do M-x eshell and them eshell/make [some
Makefile]. *make is run instead producing the output of the command
directly into eshell instead of popping up a *compliation* buffer.

I think it's behaving as expected, though the docstring is a bit terse.

    eshell/make is a compiled Lisp function in `em-unix.el'.

    (eshell/make &rest ARGS)

    Use `compile' to do background makes.

If you run 'make' asynchronously, such that it's in the background, then
a *compilation* buffer is used:

    ~/tmp $ make check
    echo foo = x
    foo = x
    ~/tmp $ make check &
    #<buffer *compilation*>

I've updated the docs to state this explicitly.
