I've reverted this change for this release, to give the Linux kernel build folks time to clean up. The change will be re-introduced in the next release of GNU make. This fix will be tracked by bug #16051.

The kernel 2.6 build environment is relying on an incorrect behavior of GNU make which was fixed in the latest rc1. We're trying to determine what to do about it now.

For more information please see:

Hi,

This has been reported by several debian users.

I tried to compile the kernel (2.6.15 and 2.6.15.4) but make fails to restart where it stopped; it restarts compilation from the very beginning, as though none of the targets were newer.

Make version 3.80+3.81-rc1-1 always rebuilds the kernel even if it's just previously been built. 3.80+3.81.b4-1 does not have this problem. Something happened between beta4 and RC1
