Follow-up Comment #7, bug #61226 (project make):

Well, we could print one warning per include line rather than one warning per
file included.  Obviously, that warning would only talk about the first file
on the include line but since the suggested solution is to use "-include"
maybe that's sufficient.

> Switching to -include robs the user of a useful message, should there be a
real issue.

I'm not sure what this means: in what situation do we lose a useful message? 
Either the user wants the include to fail if the file doesn't exist in which
case they use "include" and get an error, or the user wants the include to not
fail if the file doesn't exist, in which case they use "-include" and don't
get an error which is presumably what they wanted.
