On a perhaps-related note, the following commit:
commit 359f1d05fb932ea97e3675d0ec155c3e16134092

change the build order
doesn't actually necessarily change the build order. In a Makefile rule
such as
all: a b c d
there is no guarantee that a, b, c, and d will be built in that order.
(In fact, I seem to recall that one of the BSD-derived makes actually
has an option to deliberately scramble the order.) It so happens that
GNU make -j 1 generally goes left-to-right, but that's an accident of
implementation, not a rule.
To force a particular order, the Makefile must have a proper
dependency somewhere. I suspect that's what's missing here.
