Sure looks like a bug to me.  Note that this has nothing to do with
$(eval); it's presence in your example just confuses the issue.  You
can see the issue directly with this:

ifneq (1,1)
define var1
define var2
endef
endef
endif


I suggest you visit
    http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/make

and submit the bug.
