But then this makes target1 ambiguous: is it built with "rule1 whatever" or "rule1 something_new"? If you just want functions, you might consider a shell script instead of Make. I have done something similar with make, where my var1 was CC and I wanted to cross-compile for several targets. I had a base Makefile with the definitions and then a little Makefile for each target that included the base Makefile and redefined the CC variable. In this case, the little Makefiles were in a different build directory for each target, so the ambiguity was solved that way.
