This is interesting, mainly because I can not seem to use the "%"
matches in functions as part of a patsubst.  For example...

some_var =
    [patsubst
        %0%1/%2/%3
        %0%1/[subst 1 6 %2]/%2/[myfunc %3]
        [some_list]];

does not work.  I get the entire value for %2 insead of the "subst"
part.  Also, I get an absolute "%3" passed into "myfunc" so I do not get
the last part of the file name.


Any ideas?

If the government doesn't trust the people, why doesn't it dissolve them
and elect a new people?
