Following simple test no longer works with cvs snapshot 20050310:

$ touch mbr.src
$ cat Makefile
TARGETS = mbr.b

.PHONY: all clean
.SUFFIXES: .src .b

all: $(TARGETS)

clean:
        $(RM) $(TARGETS)

mbr.b: mbr.src
        cp $*.src $@

make-3.81beta1 and even make-3.81beta2 both work as expected:
$ make-3.81beta1
cp mbr.src mbr.b

make-3.81beta3 (from cvs) breaks:
$ make-3.81beta3
cp .src mbr.b
cp: cannot stat `.src': No such file or directory
make-3.81beta3: * [mbr.b] Error 1
