Only non-file targets should be set a .PHONY. Otherwise if file target is set as .PHONY then targets which depends on those file .PHONY targets would be always rebuilt even when their prerequisites are not changed. File target which needs to be always rebuilt can be specified in Make system via having a prerequisite on some .PHONY target, instead of marking whole target as .PHONY. In Makefile projects it is common to create empty .PHONY target named FORCE for this purpose. This patch changes all file targets which are set as .PHONY to depends on new .PHONY target FORCE, to ensure that these file targets are always rebuilt (as before). Basically they are those targets which calls external make subprocess. After FORCE target is specified in main Makefile, remove it from other Makefile files to prevent duplicate definitions.
