Please see attached makefiles. As provided, they should work correctly as
follows:
cmd: make -fmakefile.start
makefile.start:1: including makefile.start ver 4.4.1 goals
makefile.blah:2: blah = 1 goals:
makefile.blah:6: begin blah pass
makefile.blah:30: end of blah
makefile.start:10: end of start
echo "target help"
target help
However, if you uncomment makefile.blah, line 15, make sees the else statement
in the 'junk' recipe as part of the conditional. This is odd as that line is
simply a $(warning ...) logging call.
These were complex makefile which worked find until the $(warning ...) call
was inserted ahead of the else statement. I simplified them as much as
possible and still reproduce the error.
This happens with make-4.4.1 build on aix:
cmd: make --version
GNU Make 4.4.1

My workaround is to comment out the particular $(warning ...) call.
Thank you for any assistance!
