Hmm, well, you added that code some years ago:-) The actual behaviour (modulo
the `compat bug') is what's described in the man page and the commit message:
make the target but do NOT bother to re-make any of it's sources even if
those sources are out-of-date wrt. their dependencies.

So I'm assuming the above comment is not correct.
