Your Makefiles are likely not valid UTF-8, i.e. saved using another encoding and containing non-ASCII.
Right. They are pretty much legacy code and stored in latin 1. I'll check if anyone has problems with removing the non-ASCII characters, they are only in the comments anyway.
Still, it's strange that 'mate Makefile' opens the file if and only if no project including the file is open.
