Isn't it strange how nobody every complained about the significance of whitespace in makefiles: only the fact that leading tabs were required rather than just-any-old whitespace.
Make doesn't care how much whitespace there is, though, only whether it's there or not. If it accepted anything that looks like whitespace, there would be no cause for complaint.
