Description: Segmentation fault regression in make 4.3 vs. 4.2.1

My apologies I'm not really sure how this bug reporting process works but I'm hitting a regression in GNU make 4.3

Would it be possible to have a patch ported onto our version?

Thanks!

Hi, thanks for the quick response.

The attached diff works for me. I'm happy to run with it for a bit if you need more reliability but problem I saw didn't reproduce.

My use case is basically the same as that of Thomas in the original bug report.
