Are you sure about this?  I just tried a new build and got a
  %MMK-F-CANTUPD, cannot update target [.ENCODE]ISO8859*.ENC - sources unknown
from MMK...and while very unlikely, wondered if it was my MMK patch
that made the difference.  However a little test DESCRIP.MMS:

.suffixes
.suffixes .obj .c .xs

foo.obj :   xyz

foo.c : xyz foo2.c  [.encode]blem*.c
        copy foo2.c foo.c

.c.obj  :
        cc $(MMS$SOURCE)

with the files XYZ, FOO2.C and [.ENCODE]BLEM1.C all existing resulted
in the same "no known sources" both from MMK and from MMS (V3.0-05).
Maybe this functionality was added in later versions of MMS?

Hmm...looking at MMK_DOC.TXT tell one right away "MMK does not handle
wildcard dependency rules".

Sounds like doing the globbing in Makefile.PL might be a good idea...
