Because makeinfo exits with an error status, and Make stops. IOW,
using the --force switch to makeinfo prevents it from deleting the
produced Info file, but does not prevent it from returning an exit
status that indicates an error.
> make -C ../doc/misc info
> make[1]: Entering directory `C:/emacs/trunk/doc/misc'
> makeinfo --force -I./../emacs faq.texi
> makeinfo --force calc.texi

> make[1]: *** [../../info/calc] Error 1
That's definitely an old makefile, from before the latest changes to
makefile.w32-in: the command for faq.texi includes the -I switch,
while the command for calc.texi does not. Please show the full
doc/misc/makefile you have. Also, please look into the doc/misc
directory and tell which files you have there that match the wildcard
"*make*" (e.g. "dir *make*" should show that).
