Hm. This does make it look like a bug in make, that's for sure:

Right here make invokes the diff.o command even though paths.h, which is
a prerequisite according to other extracts posted here, has not yet
completed.
Can you run this again, this time with full debugging (-d)? This will
generate voluminous output, but I only need to see the output for the
"src" directory.
Another thing that might be interesting is to run make in the src
subdirectory with "-p" to see what the makefile database looks like.
Maybe the prerequisites list we think we have is not what we really
have.
Thanks.
