Is it correct to assume that you are using a (broken) BETA version of the GNU make tool?

I reject your patch. AFAIK, any sane version of make handles the current Makefile correctly.

Please get working tools.

Hi,

I'm using make 3.81-2 that is in Debian etch and sid currently.

$ make --version GNU Make 3.81

$ dpkg -l make ii make 3.81-2 The GNU version of the "make" utility.

A test with the attached Makefile: $ touch 1.src $ make make: *** No rule to make target `1.out', needed by `all'. Stop.

I would file a bug against make on Debian BTS if that is believed to be one.
