Since GNU make 4.4 the semantics of the $(MAKEFLAGS) variable has
changed in a backward-incompatible way, as its "NEWS" file notes:
Hrm.  I did try to look through the other makefiles to find similar
constructs and get them all, but apparently my grep fu was
insufficient.  Bother.

Thanks.
Thanks, both.  Will queue.
I noticed that this patch also touches Git GUI, a change which technically
should have come in via https://github.com/prati0100/git-gui, not directly
via git/git.

So let's make Pratyush [Cc:ed] aware of this change.

We probably want to avoid applying Git GUI changes directly to git/git in
the future. In the meantime, because I know that Pratyush is busy, I
opened https://github.com/prati0100/git-gui/pull/83 with a (partial)
backport of this patch.
Should it? I looked at https://github.com/prati0100/git-gui#contributing
before including git-gui in that change, which says:

	Even though the project is hosted at GitHub, the development
	does not happen over GitHub Issues and Pull Requests.  Instead,
	an email based workflow is used. The Git mailing list
	[git@vger.kernel.org](mailto:git@vger.kernel.org) is where the
	patches are discussed and reviewed.

As a bit of deja-vu when trying to find if that was outdated or not I
found that you seemed to have had pretty much this exact exchange
already with the git-gui maintainer at
https://lore.kernel.org/git/20190924122306.bcwe37wlahjimve7@yadavpratyush.com/ (local)

Which seems to have been followed-up by
https://lore.kernel.org/git/pull.361.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com/ (local);
I.e. you sent a git-gui change to this ML.

Or do you mean that it should have been sent to this ML, Pratyush should
have pulled it, and Junio would have pulled upstream after that?
