 model will also fail if the above  methods are not used.

+{AJ} Older make version (<= 3.78.90) have a bug which was hidden by a bug in
+glibc (<= 2.1.2).  You need to upgrade make to a newer or fixed version.  A
+patch is available via
+<http://sourceware.cygnus.com//ml/libc-alpha/2000-02/msg00067.html>.
+
+After upgrading make, you should remove the file sysd-sorted in your build
+directory.  The problem is that the broken make creates a wrong order for
+one list in that file.  The list has to be recreated with the new make -
+which happens if you remove the file.
+
+You might encounter this bug also in other situations where make scans
+directories.  I strongly advise to upgrade your make version.
