Double-colons in pattern rules means something very, very different than
double-colons in explicit rules.

See the GNU make manual section "Match-Anything Pattern Rules", where it
talks about terminal vs. non-terminal pattern rules.


There is no way to mimic the way double colon rules behave in explicit
rules, using pattern rules.
