Update of bug #35062 (project make):
Status: None => Wont Fix
Open/Closed: Open => Closed

Follow-up Comment #1:
Sorry but this would completely change make in a way that's massively
incompatible... and confusing.
For example, today if you say:
PRE = foo
all: $(PRE)
PRE = bar
all: $(PRE)
foo bar: ; @echo $@
You'll see "foo" then "bar". With your suggested change you would see just
"bar" (no "foo").
This is such a complete abrogation of the historical behavior of make that I
don't think it's appropriate, even as an option (especially since it would be
an enormous amount of work to implement).
