(I got it and your other one, but raising a bug was probably a better choice
anyway here.)

I see "make clean" isn't enough to set up for a new run - you need rm -r
vardeps too.  That's nice work to get it down to something practical to attach
here.  There's still surely lots of extraneous detail.  Is this the same
problem?


martind@paris:~/tmp/make-57676$ cat Makefile
-include deps

BADGER := $(shell touch deps)

some-file: deps;
