I put in a test-rc:

My experience is that the =| cannot be separated from
the leading variable in this construction. It needs
to be
:0h
my_HEADERS=| cat
or
:0h
my_HEADERS=|cat
but not
:0h
my_HEADERS =|cat
or
:0h
my_HEADERS =|cat
Remember that this syntax can be dangerous on some builds. David said that
already, but it bears repeating. We're talking about memory destruction.
There is also reason to believe that even on builds where the syntax
"works," the memory-destruction bug is present. There is a patch for
this that is in private hands. I don't know if there is a public patch.
