According to POSIX a target with no commands should not be touched with -t.  I implemented a patch for this which fixes the bug.

Given a makefile that starts as the following
===========================
HERE:=$(dir $(word $(words  ${MAKEFILE_LIST}),${MAKEFILE_LIST}))

T:=Z$(subst /,_,${HERE})

.PHONEY: $T

ALL+= $T

==============
for Make-3.80rc2, then make -t dumps core. Yes, I know I can not spell '.PHONY', but that is no excuse. The problem occurs in the function 'notice_finished_file', line 790, where it says

          for (i = file->cmds->ncommand_lines; i > 0; --i)

just after it has done the 'touch' on the file Zcurrent_dir_with_slash_changed_to_underscore_

At this point, file->cmds is a NULL pointer, so it can not be dereferenced. If I could spell, the line would not be reached, but file->phony is 0 with my spelling mistake.
