Endless loop in Make 3.80 (Cygwin)

[Peter Keitler]

Hi *,

the following Makefile enters an endless loop on our Cygwin installation 
(Win2k, SP3) with GNU Make 3.80.

### begin
dep : env
        @echo Target: dep
        touch dep

env:
        @echo Target: environment

include dep
### end

I call it with the 'make' command only, without any parameters. On our 
Linux box (SuSE 8.1, 'uname -r: 2.4.21-168-default') with GNU Make 
Version 3.79.1, both targets are built only twice each. This is the 
behaviour I would expect, since the included Makefile has changed after 
the first run.

Any ideas? Do you need further information?
