Hi Dave.
Walking through my mailbox I found this one.
I did not get similar reports and I cannot reproduce it.
Do you continue to see this or had it been fixed somehow?
The only way I can see it heppen is that you have lost
the initial assignmnet in top-level Makefile so
make see this as an '=' assinment and not a ':='
assignment.
The first may not reference itself.

Still happens for me with the latest tree from git.

$ git diff Makefile

(This tree is completely pristine, no changes at all)

There is no easy fx for this one.
You try to build one of the non-standard directories and it just
fails because arch/x86/Makefile is not a regular Kbuild file.
Try with any other directory (almost any other) and it works.
Considered unfortunate but not a bug - so I will not try to fix it.

So, how are we going to build only arch/x86/ right now with kbuild?

It is not poissible.
You can do:
make arch/x86/kernel/
make arch/x86/lib/
make arch/x86/mm/
But there is no easy way to build them in one go.
