Follow-up Comment #2, bug #35485 (project make):

I don't think this implementation is appropriate.  The value of "MFDIR" will
change wildly over time if makefiles are included which can't possibly be what
you want.  For example:


.MFDIR = $(abspath $(dir $(lastword $(MAKEFILE_LIST))))
$(info MFDIR = $(.MFDIR))
include foo/bar.mk
$(info MFDIR = $(.MFDIR))
all:;:


will show:

MFDIR = /tmp
MFDIR = /tmp/foo
:


which doesn't seem like what you'd want.  In order to properly implement this,
it would need to be handled as a special variable that would be reset properly
as make started and stopped processing included makefiles.

Or maybe I'm misunderstanding what you're looking for... perhaps a more
specific definition would help.
