Ok, some more light in this darkness. Obviously this happened for nobody
else on IRIX 6 because I have an outdated sys.mk (more than a year
old) which defines 'CPP?=CC' while the current setting is 'CPP?= CC -E'.

Together with problems concerning ".USE" syntax due to an outdated/buggy
bmake (the same problem I had on Linux some days ago) this points
again to a missing but needed feature: detection of outdated bootstrap
files/packages.
