Follow-up Comment #3, bug #17740 (project make):
Someone who sees this problem will need to either provide a reproducible test
case, or a description clear enough to allow me to create one. Based on the
information in this bug I tried this:
include foo.d
foo.d: foo.x ; : cp $< $@
all: ; : all
Then "touch foo.d"... but it didn't show the behavior you describe:
$ touch foo.d
$ make
make: *** No rule to make target `foo.x', needed by `foo.d'.
Stop.
$ /opt/src/make/old/make-3.81/make --version
