This has nothing to do with % targets. It works as coded and is related to
issue 34746. If a file is present for our target we use its filetime - Unless
it is PHONY (No, phony doesn't seem to work with percent rules as your example
indicates, but that is another bug. Is it?)

But does it work as intended? Stale, preexisting flagfiles prohibit the build
of parent targets if the recipe for the flagfile doesn't update the time stamp
of the target.

How to solve this?
* Document this feature and warn people not to do it.
* Always force the target time to *now* even if the file exists and has a
  different time stamp.
* touch the target instead of statting it. This might be slightly complicated,
  see Stat_target() in stat.c because the target file name might not be
  well-defined (.SOURCE and friends).
