Ø  Using GNU Make 3.81 in macOS 10.12.

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-gnu/2006-04/msg00000.html suggests that 
was released over a decade ago.  I imagine that's still what Apple's shipping 
but perhaps it's time for you to visit https://brew.sh/.  I doubt the 
behavior's changed but people are sure to be more interested in your reports if 
you're running, say 4.2.1, as 
https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/make.rb would 
seem to offer.

Perhaps your problem is something to do with 
https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/MAKE-Variable.html.  Hard to 
say when you haven't supplied an example Makefile, preferably a minimal one.

When I try to check my Makefile's with make -f <path> -n 
--warn-undefined-variables, then I can see in the output that make continues to 
execute the "all" task, even tough -n was specified.
