GNU Make 4.1 carrying on after -f missingfile.mak

Hello Paul

Quick question:

$ make -f missingfile.mak
make: missingfile.mak: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target 'missingfile.mak'. Stop.

Shouldn't Make exit after the missing file?

Make appears to be carrying on, and then treating the makefile as a target.

Reproduced on latest Ubuntu GNU-Linux

Regards, Jonny
