Sorry I didn't notice this. When asking questions it helps to call out the important things explicitly rather than relying on the perennially distracted to notice all the nuances. GNUMAKEFLAGS is only "special" when read from the environment. It has no meaning inside a makefile; it's just a normal variable as far as make is concerned. You must use the MAKEFLAGS variable inside a makefile, for it to have any effect. I can see that the docs are not completely clear about this. It should be made clearer.
