If I understand correctly there is no dependency
calculator for your 'abc
compiler', hence no dependency from abcvar_%.h on
the .cla file?
In that case the 'random' behavior may be
explained due to the order in
which make checks the dependencies. E.g. it
may first check against the .c
files, decides all are up-to-date, then
check the .cla dependencies to see
it has to call the 'abc compiler'.
