[bug #18641] GNUmake 3.81, $(error ) sometimes unable to stop make process

[Jun Chen]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #18641 (project make):

[2007-01-04]

Well, with the help of Martin Dorey, I've got to know that this bug has
nothing to do with make's $(error ) function, but a make behavior change for
``-include '' directive. Since I used ``-include $(_p_SubprjsMade)'' instead
of ``include $(_p_SubprjsMade) '' in my makefile, failure to remake
$(_p_SubprjsMade) will not stop the whole make process.

After removing the dash from ``-include $(_p_SubprjsAttrMade)'' , the make
process goes as I've expected on GNUmake 3.80 as well as GNUmake 3.81,
however, I have to suffer from the noisy "<some-file>:<some line>: No such
file or directory" warning output by make.
