I noted a change between make 4.3 and 4.4.1. In short, make 4.4.1 tries to
rebuild certain targets which were considered up to date in 4.3.
In the CI for [https://github.com/openSUSE/multipath-tools/ multipath-tools],
I sometimes need to package the binary artifacts for the CI (all libraries and
the CI programs linking to them) in an archive, in order to unpack and run
them in a different environment. This is useful for building CI for non-native
architectures, for example (cross-compiling on x86_64, archiving the results,
and then running the cross-compiled test programs under qemu is much faster
then doing the entire compilation and testing under qemu).
The command I use for running the tests is "make -C tests". The Makefile has
rules to run the test programs, roughly like this (the real logic is more
complex):
all: $(TESTS:%=%.out)
%.out: %-test
./$< >$@
After unpacking the archive with the test programs and libraries,
these rules would simply run all xxx-test programs and store the results in
the respective xxx.out files. At least this is how it worked until make 4.3.
With GNU make 4.4.1, make tries to rebuild some of the test programs, which
fails, because the environment for running the tests is lacking some of the
tools and libraries required for building.
Here is a reproducer. So far I couldn't come up with anything simpler, sorry.

The
[https://github.com/openSUSE/multipath-tools/blob/053fd3b0976604d9fcced20236e9a847baa58bf7/tests/Makefile#L125
recipe that I am using] for the test progams is arguably very complicated.
This is due to the necessity to insert "-Wl,--wrap" linker options to make the
cmocka-based tests work, and to the fact that each test program has different
dependencies (which also goes back to the way "-Wl,--wrap" works).
Anyway, the behavior between 4.3 and 4.4.1 differs, and I'm not sure if this
is a bug or a feature. You can see above that the behavior doesn't differ for
all test programs. AFAICS, only thos tests are affected list explicit
dependencies on the implicit rule for "%.-test" in the .SECONDEXPANSION part.
The others (e.g. uevent-test, mapinfo-test) are considered up-to-date by 4.4.1
as well.
