Could someone explain the reasoning behind gmake producing the message:
gmake: Nothing to be done for `all'.
to stderr on success? This seems to contradict the Unix philosophy of
only producing output when the user asks for it or on error.
On Sunos4, Solaris and Dynix/PTX (and I'm guessing on most other OSs)
using the system-supplied make, the following Makefile produces no output
and simply returns 0.

Yes, I know about the "-s" option, but that's overkill.
