The is left over from RC2. And RC2 is (in addition) the last version that supports the export of Makefiles. This feature has been disabled due to the massive internal changes that caused a stop of this functionality. This will return maybe in the future but it makes no sense to re-implement at that time.
So: If you want to export Makefiles, install RC2 (e.g. in parallel in *another* directory) and use this version for the export. Sure you will have issues with the project files (as the format has changed several times since than) but this can be resolved...
With regards, Morten.

But I suppose you won't enable this feature for the RC3 right?, I mean, is this included in a roadmap, or a TODO for an X.x version?

That's right it's very unlikely this will be re-enabled anytime soon due to the changes still to come... The reason in plain simple: We would have to do another re-write otherwise.

Ah.. ok..  That's good enough for me.  I mean if I can get C:B to export it once it shouldn't be too hard for me to maintain after that.  Thanks! :)
