This thread is my first post here: it was a follow-up to some messages on
related topics in the archives. E.g.:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-make/2015-02/msg00012.html

I found this bug in the process of tracking down behavior I couldn't
explain with a much more complicated makefile setup. I desired a small
reproducer to demonstrate the behavior publicly, which turned out to be
entirely straightforward.
