I'm not sure we ever did fix it; I see no references to that bug in the
commit history, nor to the similar bug #6059, nor does it look like we
changed anything in the relevant make rules.
I can no longer reproduce a failure when building out-of-tree from a
tarball on my Fedora 16 box. That's still make 3.82, but Fedora is
carrying half a dozen patches to the upstream tarball:
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=make.git;a=tree;h=refs/heads/f16;hb=f16
It's not immediately obvious which of those might be related, but
I think this was a bug in gmake and the fix is in there somewhere.
