Follow-up Comment #5, bug #60595 (project make):
Thank you for all the information and for considering the issue in such
careful manner!

build the target makefile (or maybe you include it with "-include").
No, when bui
Follow-up Comment #4, bug #60595 (project make):
Thanks for the description. Here's a much simpler repro case:
all: ; @echo RESTARTS=$(MAKE_RESTARTS)
m1.d: ; touch $@
m2.d: m1.d ; test -f $< || touch $@
include m2.d m1.d
If you run this makefile with:
rm -f m?.d && make
it will correct
Follow-up Comment #3, bug #60595 (project make):
I agree that this is a bug: the behavior should match the manual.
Just to note that in the next version of GNU make the order of rebuilding
included makefiles will be reversed so that it happens in the "expected" way
(first file is checked first).
