The following makefile.mk gives the error "Don't know how to make `foo.b'" when
invoked as "dmake foo.b":
.a.b :
@copy $*.a $*.b
foo.a ::
@echo foo>foo.a
If I remove the ":" modifier from the "foo.a" target's ":" rule operator then it
works fine, but dmake's manual does say that having a single "::" target is
illegal, and, indeed, it works fine in other cases, e.g. the following:
bar.b : bar.a
@copy bar.a bar.b
bar.a ::
@echo bar>bar.a
In the above, issuing the command "dmake bar.b" corrcetly makes bar.a followed
by bar.b.
So it appears to be something to do with the combination of the ".a.b" type rule
with a single "::" target that causes the problem.
