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.

This is perfectly legitimate, and not an error in make (Dan's original
example didn't have a real command to run in the event it actually
worked).
