I am experiencing a problem with make (gmake) on my Linux workstation.
This
is the version I am using:

quince:/home/hirshman/Stellarator/tmp>make --version
GNU Make version 3.79.1, by Richard Stallman and Roland McGrath.
Built for i386-redhat-linux-gnu
Copyright (C) 1988, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99,

The problem is that when I touch my Fortran source files (both *.f and
*.f90 files),
ONLY the *.f files get remade when I run my makefile (even though I
have
checked that "touch" is updating both types of 
files).

Now in my makefile I have a line

.SUFFIXES: .f90

to account for .f90 NOT being one of the native suffixes recognized by
make.

Can you tell me what I may do to remedy this situation? Is my
"make" utility
out of date or (more likely) is there something in my makefile that needs
to be
fixed.

Thanks.
