[bug #20006] Regression between 3.80 and 3.81

[Ben Franksen]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #20006 (project make):

We just stumbled over the same bug when upgrading from 3.80 to 3.81. As
additional data point, I verified that reverting the change in implicit.c from
1.40 to 1.41 in a version freshly checked out from CVS fixes it (in our
project -- and don't ask me why ;). This is the change I made:

                 continue;
