Please review this fix to make the build compatible with GNU make 4.3.
See bug for details on the fix, but this change basically adds an
empty rule like this for the example failure:
/localhome/git/jdk-sandbox/open/build/linux-x86_64-server-release/buildtools/langtools_tools_classes/_the.BUILD_TOOLS_LANGTOOLS.vardeps:
With this change I'm able to build with make 4.3 and DependOnVariable
is still behaving as expected.

Oh, we've solved this in parallel. :-&
Actually, I think I prefer my fix:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ihse/JDK-8237879-make-4-3-include-is-broken/webrev.01
I think it more clearly captures the issue, rather than adding a "magic"
workaround.
