says it pretends to make. This bug was apparently harmless except for normal cases involving .ORDER statements when it made debugging of -jN using -n very confusing. E.g., for: .ORDER: beforedepend .depend depend: beforedepend .depend where beforedepend depends on something so that it is not initially up to date, `make [-n] -j2 depend' causes `make' to wait for itself to make beforedepend. This works fine without -n. The job to make beforedepend has normally been started, and beforedepend is marked as made when the job completes. However, with -n, the pseudo-job for making beforedepend has normally completed, and in any case there was no chance of beforedepend being marked as made. `make' actually exited almost immediately with status 0 instead of waiting forever.
