Ah, so I'm not alone. Well, it happens on my machine and under my
current environment consistently. And, to clarify the matters, it
happens on the very simple GNUmakefile I demonstrated in my previous
message. But others failed to reproduce it---with the same versions
of make, tcsh and cygwin. 

What else it may depend on? Perhaps applied Windows patches and
Windows version? Mine is:

   Windows XP Professional Ver 5.1 Build 2600 Version 2002 
   Service Pack 2

But there are millions of additional fixes and patches that are
not covered by the above. 

Cheers,
