There is a bug in Gnu Make 3.54. and earlier version with the include
directive.  Namely if you do not have the include directive at the beginning
of the line it can't find the file name

For example if the Makefile is the following:
________________________________________________________________________
# This is make file with the include directive problem
    include Depend
________________________________________________________________________

When make is run on this file it outputs:

make: fopen: ude Depend: No such file or directory
make: *** No way to make target `ude Depend'.  Stop.

It seems it assumes that the include directive is at the beginning
of the line even though it found it not at the beginning of the file.
