Hi Paul - 

With the two line Makefile,

x:
        -false

running make 4.1 results in 

Makefile:2: recipe for target 'x' failed
make: [x] Error 1 (ignored)

When an error is ignored, I think showing the "recipe failed" message is
wrong -- it didn't fail.  At least, I certainly don't want to see it.
That's why I ignored errors on the command in the first place ...

Thanks,
Karl

P.S. Actually, as I wrote before, I wish there was a way to turn off
that new message entirely, but that's a different issue.
