Re: [ROOT] ROOT Makefile request + problem

Hi Axel,


  I'll look into splitting the architecture part of the test Makefile into
a seperate part.

Concerning the NOEXCEPTION extension this is a FNAL only issue and you
should contact Philippe Canal for that. We don't support NOEXCEPTION in
the official distribution since that is now an anachronism.

Cheers, Fons.
