Prerequisite ordering - make 3.81

[Daniel Thom]

Hello, I have noticed that the behavior between make 3.80 and 3.81 seems to 
have changed with respect to prerequisite ordering of multiply defined 
targets in the following scenario:

#############################################################
target: one

target:
        @echo "This operation is important. . ."

target: two


one:
        @echo "one"

two:
        @echo "two"
#############################################################

With make 3.80 I get the following output from processing this makefile:

one
two
This operation is important. . .

With make 3.81 I get this:

two
one
This operation is important. . .

As long as the 'target:' line with the "This operation is important. . ." 
statement comes *BEFORE* 'target: two' the behavior is as shown above.  If it 
is below 'target: two' both versions of make behave the same.

Is this an expected difference between the two versions (I'm guessing it is)?  
I did look at the info pages and google around, but I didn't see an answer 
for this exact (and very simple) scenario.  I'm sure I can work around this 
difference, though I need to support multiple versions of make and would 
prefer not to kludge this too badly if this is a bug rather than expected 
behavior (this is a much simplified example).

        Cordially,
