[ Basically, a Makefile under Manx's Make is causing a Guru ]

I have found that Manx forgot to turn on stack checking when creating
the Make program (an assumption... doesn't everyone ship code with
such checking on? :-) because certain recursive definitions in the
makefile will cause it to Guru due to a stack overflow.

Now I always check for things like that when importing foreign
makefiles.
