I never would've realized it was CFLAGS!

From the make(1) manpage: : The four different classes of variables (in order of increasing prece- : dence) are: : : Environment variables : Variables defined as part of make's environment. : : Global variables : Variables defined in the makefile or in included makefiles. : : Command line variables : Variables defined as part of the command line. : : Local variables : Variables that are defined specific to a certain target. The : seven local variables are as follows: Are you telling me that setting CFLAGS in the ENVIRONMENT causes this strange behavior? (I cannot reproduce it here, because environment variables are of a lower precedence than globals.) Are you sure you weren't running make(1) with the -e option? (I can reproduce this with this option, as it causes environment variables to take higher precedence than globals.)
