One possibility that didn't introduce any new syntax would be that if
for a rule
target1 target2: prerequisites
command1
command2
the automatic variables $@ and $% are never unfolded during the
evaluation of the commands, make would assume that the commands
have made all the targets up-to-date.
Such a principle may be too arcane and adhockish to admit of
understandable documentation, however.
