Follow-up Comment #1:

This is the expected behavior.  See
http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Pattern-Intro.html:

Pattern rules may have more than one target. Unlike normal rules, this does
not act as many different rules with the same prerequisites and recipe. If a
pattern rule has multiple targets, make knows that the rule’s recipe is
responsible for making all of the targets. The recipe is executed only once to
make all the targets.

If you want to run the recipe once for each target, you have to declare one
pattern rule per target.  You can put the recipe into a variable if you want
to reduce duplication.
