I recently observed a strange `patsubst` behavior when substituting the empty string:
``` $ cat Makefile .PHONY: all all:; $(info $(patsubst %.,,1.2)) $ make 1.2 make: Nothing to be done for 'all'. ``` I was expecting: ``` $ make 2 make: Nothing to be done for 'all'. ``` I read the manual twice but I cannot explain this behavior.
