Offtopic - can "elseif" be considered "sufficiently standard" (as 
opposed to elif/elsif in some other languages) to not be surprising to 
people?

Turns out that if

%.cmi: %.mli :scanner: scan-ocaml-%.mli
     $(OCamlC) -c $<

is replaced with

%.cmi: %.mli
     section rule
        %.cmi: %.mli :scanner: scan-ocaml-%.mli
            $(OCamlC) -c $<

then the problem becomes hidden! Could it be that target-exists gets 
confused by the scanner target somehow?
