I finally made some time to dig into this and (of course) ran into
problems.

After figuring out that I have to use bmake aka bsd-make, not GNU
make, I am now stuck. Running "bmake regress" always tells me the
target is up to date.

I am no make expert, so I tried to find a way to force make/bmake to
"build" a target, even if it is apparently up to date.

It might be my bad search foo, but apparently bsd-make is lacking such
a feature? And the only workaround I found failed (something with
finding all targets, making them PHONY and then executing this with
including the Makefile.

I cloned both the got and got-portable repository, checked out the
proper tags in both and tried to get this running. Without success.

What am I missing?

Thanks in advance.

Kind Regards,
Johannes
