+# Comment by tfee 2004-07-01
+# ==========================
+# This file is a mod of the stock OTP one.
+# The change allows make to stop when a compile error occurs.
+# This file needs to go into two places:
+#     /usr/local/include/erlang
+#     /opt/OTP_SRC/make
+#
+# where OTP_SRC is a symbolic link to a peer directory containing
+# the otp source, e.g. otp_src_R9C-2.
+#
+# After installing OTP, running sudo make install in otp/build
+# will push this file out to the two places listed above.
+#
+# The mod involves setting the shell variable $short_circuit, which we
+# introduce - ie it is not in the stock file. This variable is tested
+# to affect execution flow and is also returned to affect the flow in
+# the calling script (this one). The latter step is necessary because
+# of the recursion involved.
+# =====================================================================
