One way to do this is as follows (I'm assuming GNU Make 3.81 here
because I use $(info)):
do = $Q$(info $(value $_))$(info $_)$_
And here's an example. Start with this:
FOO = foo
foo:
$Qtouch $(FOO)
and transform it into:
do = $Q$(info $(value 1))$(eval _ := $1)$_
FOO = foo
foo:
$(call do,touch $$(FOO))
Note the double $ on the $(FOO). I've kept your $Q (which will control
whether the expanded command if echoed or not).
If you've not come across my monthly GNU Make column you might like to
have a read as there are lots of useful tips:
