PK70551: SUBDIRECTORY FILENAME MATCHING CLEARMAKE TARGET CAUSES BUILD FAILURE IN CLEARCASE 7.0.1.1

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When executing clearmake, if there is a subdirectory with the
  same name as the clearmake target, then the build fails with an
  error like: 'clearmake: Error: Don't know how to make 'b'.
  Stop.'
  
  If the directory is renamed or removed, then the clearmake
  execution is successful.  This problem has only been reproduced
  in ClearCase 7.0.1.1.
  
  Note: This problem does not occur in clearmake 2003.06.10+, or
  outside of ClearCase using gnu make or Solaris make.
  
  
  WORKAROUND:
  
  Must run clearmake in a path that does not contain a directory
  with the same name as the clearmake target.
