Ofcourse, when data.c is present and data.h is missing, then make will
not recreate data.h. It'll run the empty rule.
Your original makefile
data.h data.c: data.foo
I had accidentally posted to bug-make@gnu.org first, but this
belongs to bug-autom...@gnu.org.

Just to remind, this is the mailing list for GNU make... the above
The manual
(https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Multiple-Outputs.html)
describes various ways to handle commands with multiple outputs.
One intermediate solution that's said to work except with phony
dependencies doesn't actually seem to work:
% cat Makefile
all: data.c data.h
