I don't want to document that, since it might change. The order in
which included files are built should be considered random, that's why
it's not specified in the manual.

It would be just as simple to make adding "r" to MAKEFLAGS work
correctly.
There's a reason this hasn't been done: it's not that easy. It's not
_that_ hard, but it will require a bit of work.
