Nobody else does it as far as I know. It was my invention, just for Emacs.

I expect the new GNU 'make' behavior will be better for most software 
projects, as it's likely to catch typos that cause bugs. So let's port 
to it; it's not hard. To do that, I installed the attached patch into 
Emacs master. It uses Paul Smith's suggestion, so that 'make' still 
outputs nicely-indented info.

Boldly marking this bug as done.
