Of these five colons only the one before "x" is special. Without
highlighting the multiline string assigned to var "b:c" looks like a
rule, as does the last line. And prior to my rework, the colon in
${var:a=b} was also recognized as a rule separator.
That is a bug, but the behavior of the code I removed was simply
intolerable--a much worse bug.
Here's the original message.

Subject: [make-mode.el] Multi-line font locking not working correctly
Suppose you want to type the following lines into a new Makefile:
FOO = bar \
bar \
bar
If you type everything by hand from top to bottom, as soon as <TAB> is
typed on the third line, fontification of the second line will
disappear. Content typed in the third line will not be fontified
either.
