+Version 3.81a2
+
+* GNU make is ported to OS/2.
+ Port provided by Andreas Buening <andreas.buening@nexgo.de>.
+
+* All pattern-specific variables that match a given target are now used
+ (previously only the first match was used).
+
+* Target-specific variables can be marked as exportable using the
+ "export" keyword.
+
+* In a recursive $(call ...) context, any extra arguments from the outer
+ call are now masked in the context of the inner call.
+
+* Enhancements for POSIX compatibility:
+ - Only touch targets (under -t) if they have at least one command.
