This issue has been discussed with Paul D. Smith which also provided

The patch is in the kbuild queue for 2.6.17.
But we also agreed to postpose this change in make until next stable
release. So if you update your make to latest CVS version you will no
longer see this misbehaviour.
And when 2.6.17 opens up kbuild will be 'fixed' in mainline kernel.
So what's going to be done about 2.6.16?
I'm seeing this behaviour too in -rc6 and it is a bad regression
for a developer. I assume there will be some workaround?
I assume debian soon will update make to current version from CVS that
has this behaviour removed.
