Paul says [
That seems to be a bug. I can reproduce it. On the other hand I can do
this:
$ touch 'foo(bar)baz'
$ make 'foo(bar)baz.t'
and I don't get this error: it actually runs the rule, so it's not just
parentheses. I wonder if it has to do with archive support. This should be
reported on Savannah.
