I found a little trick, but this isn't realy helpful but demonstrates, that there must be a bug in libc or make. If LFN is enabled, make does not find a file, which is longer than 8.3. But if there exists a file with the first 8 characters equal to the long name and the same extension, the long file is found by make. In your example you can test it by creating a file 'thetestf.c' and do your tests again.
