Missing separator on macro call ?

[Erik Joelsson]

Hello David,

That error means something goes wrong when evaluating the macro body. 
Unfortunately make will not give you any better message than that. If 
you didn't change anything in make/common/NativeCompilation.gmk, the 
most likely cause is that you have changed a variable that is used in 
there, or in one of the parameters in that call, and that variable now 
has some character in it that gets misinterpreted, typically a comma or 
dollar would be the culprits.
