You can say
$(call frame-enter)
include foo.make
$(call frame-leave)
and any changes to variables inside

What's variable framing?
Do you still think that MAKEFILE_LIST is a scalable, viable solution?
It is good enough to bootstrap

Well, when you include a makefile you would probably want it's variable
definitions too so I am
Although it's reminiscent of DOS, I like your use of '%' in private variable names.
There's a lot of meat in this. It'll take some time for me to chew on it and digest.

Unless MAKEFILE_LIST is used before any other includes, using the trick below doesn't work. I think it's also quite messy to have to create explicitly a variable to hold this information in each makefile that needs it. Moreover, there's no guarantee that
someone won't overwrite the variable in w

It is good enough to bootstrap and build on top.

They are called "system variables".

You gotta be kidding me!
p := $(dir $(word $(words $(MAKEFILE_LIST)),$(MAKEFILE_LIST)))
include foo.make
$(warning $p)

BTW, I also said that such a variable can be overwritten by the included makefile. I
think it has a pretty high probability of being overwritten and the probability
increases the more makefiles are included. For example, adding to the example below:
# foo.make
p := $(dir $(word $(words $(MAKEFI
