Re: Multiple commands in one 'actions' group

"more than on command line" is more than one command line .. like
two! 
e.g.

actions link bind LIBRARIES
{
ld $(OPTIONS) -L"$(LINKPATH)" --start-group "$(LIBRARIES)" -
l$(FINDLIBS-SA) -l$(FINDLIBS-ST) --end-group "$(>)" -Map "$(<).map"
-o 
"$(<)"
link-stripper "$(<)" "$(<).stripped"
}

causes it to pass the whole lot as one long command line.. so 'ld' 
receives 'link-stripper "$(<)" "$(<).stripped"' as the end of its 
command line.. :(
