A feature has been proposed that, if implemented, will expose the number of times make
has re-exec'ed. It's similar to MAKE_LEVEL, but will count the number of times make
started reparsing the makefiles.
If this feature existed, then I think something like the following should be doable:
ifneq ($(MAKE_EXEC_COUNT),0)
ifeq ($(wildcard aoeu.mk),)
$(error aoeu.mk: No such file or directory)
endif
endif
