Michael, I am sorry for being so dumb apparently, but I still don't see it.
Can you tell me the sequence of steps to reproduce the problem?
[mark@grid003 ~]$ cat Makefile
all: foo bar bar1
bar1: bar
touch $@
bar: foo
foo : baz
touch foo bar
[mark@grid003 ~]$ touch foo bar bar1
[mark@grid003 ~]$ touch baz
[mark@grid003 ~]$ make
touch foo bar
touch bar1
