As the bug description was filed to them at least 3 years ago GNU make should have been restructured meahwhile or it is not actively maintained anymore.
Maybe your propsed algorithm was infeasible? Previous comments from the bugs list pointed here suggest that there was no realistic implementation offered and no convincing case made. Indeed, it appears that the discussion happened in an obscure newsgroup rather than on the correct list. Pretty much the same as this discussion of debian and cdrecord is on the wrong list...
Completely wrong and you should know this!
Smake implements it the right way so there is even a reference implementation.

I have no idea which part you are replying to here. I am even less interested in your constant unjustified contradictions.

And what of smake's problems?
