Bug Description

Though being configured correctly in the Makefile, assemblies using the *_SNIPPETS setting fail to be generated on Windows. (VS 2017, GNU Make 4.1)

Unexpected Make output:
make[2]: *** No rule to make target 'RCS/../', needed by '../'. Stop.

The same Makefile on Linux works smoothly.

Does it still fail with make 4.2.1 on Windows?

It indeed is only happening for some versions of make.

However, I finally found and fixed the issue with dd9f38d7 (3.15) / 40d9a21c (7.0).
