Version: 2.95.3

gcc top-level `Makefile.in' contains `MAKEOVERRIDES=' line, which
can introduce inconveniences when trying to rerun make with slightly
modified variable values.  Why is it required at all?  The only reason
stated in GNU make documentation is small fixed limit on the size of
the environment.  If on my system this limit is very large (say, 2
Mb), will it be safe to remove this from `Makefile'?
