I must say "because SH shell cannot expand this abridgment with
brackets to the correct directories." This is not a matter on the 'find'
command but the shell.
Though FreeBSD offers just two shells, the old standard shell
/usr/bin/sh and the C Shell /usr/bin/csh, users can install the
Bourne Again Shell /usr/local/bin/bash through the BSD port
system, and almost desktop users do so. (Other users use the
C shell.) But this powerful one does not override (overwrite)
the older standard one, so sometimes user needs to know
which one runs.
The Makefile contains "images/{C, common}". This shorthand
is not allowed on the old /usr/bin/sh shell. Actually, I installed
bash too, and this shorthand is expanded properly as I expect.
I run this 'make' action on the 'bash' environment, but the 'find'
command was called internally with the old 'sh',
then this shell warned and did not work correctly.
Almost platform-depend problems caused by features and
definitions on Linux products are avoided on *BSD operating
systems by using some tricks and/or patch files. I think there
should be also some useful hacks on this issue, because it
seems typical, but I did not know any essential solution for this.
