I can reproduce this, but I do not understand how you get down
to this.
The above behavior occurs because Makefile does not exist; I
couldn't think of a real situation where the Makefile does not
exist and yet its rebuild rule is run from nowhere.
I assume this is just an artificial demonstration of a real
problem. What it is?
