This may be self-serving as I am the author of the software in
question, but I think that the Makefile generated by the configure.sh
script of the bc package to be a good example. To get it, the user can
run the first command in the bc section of Linux from Scratch.

I think it's a good example because it's supposed to be a Makefile
that can work with any make that follows the POSIX standard. It has no
frills. It has no conditions anywhere, just straight targets. It also
has an example of an implicit target.
