_______________________________________________________
Details:
An implicit rule defined for several targets at once only runs once during any
single make invocation.
This can be seen with the attached Makefile by running `make a/foo.o b/foo.o`
Output:
true
make: Nothing to be done for 'b/foo.o'.
Expected Output:
true
true
Interestingly, `make a/foo.o b/bar.o` produces the expected output.
A critical side effect of this is also that a rule that relies on an implicit
rule can be remade "successfully" even though its prerequisites have not been
updated - which can be confirmed with a more complex makefile.
