Description
The auto-generated project config.make says that it excludes xcodeproj folders by default, but in practice it does not appear to.
# (default) PROJECT_EXCLUSIONS = (blank)
#
# Will automatically exclude the following:
#
# $(PROJECT_ROOT)/bin%
# $(PROJECT_ROOT)/obj%
# $(PROJECT_ROOT)/%.xcodeproj
And make output:
$ make

Research direction
Start by inspecting the generated config.make rules that define PROJECT_EXCLUSIONS and compare the documented %.xcodeproj pattern with the paths shown in the make output. Trace where config.make is generated, then verify with a project containing an .xcodeproj directory that the generated compile inputs no longer include it.
