[bug #64288] The flag --no-print-directory becomes effective too early

[Paul D. Smith]

Update of bug #64288 (project make):

                  Status:                    None => Not A Bug              
             Open/Closed:                    Open => Closed

Follow-up Comment #1:

This behavior is intentional: setting MAKEFLAGS as a make variable assignment
modifies the behavior of the currently-running make.  If users want to disable
printing directories for the current makefile they can do so by setting the
MAKEFLAGS variable.

If you don't want to disable this setting for this instance of make, don't add
it to MAKEFLAGS.

If you want to leave print-directories for this makefile but have it unset for
children of this makefile, then you can add the flag to the invocation of the
child makes.
