GNU make will never print any message with the word "regenerating" (with
any capitalization) in it, even when debugging is enabled.  I've
searched the entire codebase and that word doesn't appear in any source
file, not even in a comment.

Are you sure you're running GNU make?  How did you enable debugging?

When asking for help (with any software) please ALWAYS provide the basic
information: what version of the software are you using, what host
architecture and operating system are you using, what _exact_ command
line did you type (cut/paste is best), what _exact_ error message did
you get (again, cut/paste is best), and any other details that seem
relevant.
