Follow-up Comment #5, bug #59490 (project make):
thanks, both.
i apologize for my posted question being incomplete!
i'm very sympathetic to this:
> However, your makefile is lying to make; it says that the
> recipe for b1 builds just b1, but in fact it also builds c1
> "behind make's back".
(as, in general, i'd rather be a truth-teller).
i guess for public release, i had better not rely on "&:", until >= 4.3
make(1) become widely distributed.
thanks, by the way, for the fact that (afaict) if i have
b1 c1 &: a1
<some recipe>
d1: c1
<some other recipe>
but, in a run, <some recipe> is run, b1 changes, but c1 is *not* changed, then
d1 is *not* remade.
cheers.
