Full log
Message #11 received at 8373 <at> debbugs.gnu.org (full text, mbox):
parse "=" in dos batch script is very difficult,
because dos batch has poor native string process commands as i could see.
I think the easy fix would be writing an extra console commands parsing command line
or give user an extra variable to set the cflags as i have mentioned.
Best regards.
