PVCS? Really? Ouch.
Why do you have to check if the directory exists? If it doesn't exist
the wildcard will evaluate to the empty string.

So, don't include both. That's what the firstword is for in my example.
Using "*" like this is going to be an issue of course... I don't see how
you're relating a path like this:
$(TOP_DIR)/SOURCE_TREE/*/make.include
with one like this:
$(PVCS_DIR)/static_makefiles/*.make.include
...???
