I discovered the difference. If you put the makefile in a different
directory, like this:
cd $HOME
cp Makefile /tmp
make -f /tmp/Makefile
Or if you list it explicitly but disable built-in rules, like this:
cd $HOME
make -rf Makefile
then it works as expected. Otherwise it fails as you see.
Clearly there's a bug here. I'll look into it.
