Description

[Mike Hommey [:glandium]]

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #661609 +++

As per bug #661609 comment 1:
Another linux 3.0 related problem:
http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/security/coreconf/Linux.mk#172

This means we don't set FREEBL_NO_DEPEND when building on Linux >= 3.0

Is this bug confirmed?  My simple test makefile below
shows that makefile fragment should be working as intended
for Linux 3.0.

$ cat Makefile
FOO := $(firstword $(sort 2.6 3.0))
BAR := $(firstword $(sort 2.6 3.0.3))
BAZ := $(firstword $(sort 2.6 3))

all:
	@echo $(FOO) $(BAR) $(BAZ)
$ make
2.6 2.6 2.6

However, it will be broken when Linux 10 is released.

$ cat Makefile
FOO := $(firstword $(sort 2.6 10.0))
BAR := $(firstword $(sort 2.6 10.0.3))
BAZ := $(firstword $(sort 2.6 10))

all:
	@echo $(FOO) $(BAR) $(BAZ)
$ make
10.0 10.0.3 10

Is that what this bug report is really about?

Oh I didn't see the sort. Sorry for the noise.
