# https://gnats.netbsd.org/49086, issue 6:
# Transformation search can end up in an infinite loop.
#
# There is no file or target from which issue6.f could be made, so
# this should fail.  The bug is that because rules .e.f, .d.e and .e.d
# exist, make would try to make .f from .e and then infinitely try
# to do .e from .d and vice versa.
