Follow-up Comment #5, bug #18139 (project make):
Boris, I don't see why %.o being intermediate makes a difference. Make can
and does chain implicit rules. I re-read the section on chaining and I don't
see anything that would contradict the basic premise of chaining, which is
that the length of the chain doesn't matter, only the order in which they're
defined in the makefile. Of course I could be forgetting something.
I realize that just because someone works differently in 3.81 doesn't mean
it's broken; however in this case I really do think that 3.80 was correct...
unless, as I mentioned, I'm missing some special case.
