I don't know. Looks like a bug to me. I'm actually a little surprised that you don't get an error like "don't know how to build baz" although I suppose it's due to the VPATH. Note, using VPATH to find targets is rarely going to work out correctly. That's not what they're designed for. I'm not extremely surprised to find some dark corners here.
