Follow-up Comment #3, bug #60799 (project make):
Yes, it is possible to store special characters in a variable.
i'd not bother fixing this, if not for the fact that make already supports
this input. It is just when second expansion is enabled the parser fails.
i don't think this inconsistency can be described in the manual.
This works fine
hello: $(shell echo world;)
This does not work
.SECONDEXPANSION:
hello: $$(shell echo world;)
