When using following makefile, if obj directory is present, gmake uses the
explicit rule to make the obj/xx.flags. If there is no obj directory it uses
implicit rule. Possibly a gmake bug?


thanks.,
Prabhakar


all : xx.exe

OBJ_DIR=obj/

%.exe : $(OBJ_DIR)%.flags
    echo "Making $<"

$(OBJ_DIR)xx.flags :
    echo "explicit"

$(OBJ_DIR)%.flags :
    echo "implicit"
