I think we certainly need the $(X) inside the command, so that the
correct files get built.  I'm not especially excited about whether a
repeat invocation of "make" will do useless work --- that would only
really matter to a PG developer, but who'd do development in a
cross-compilation environment, where testing would be highly
inconvenient?  So I'm prepared to sacrifice that aspect of it for
not cluttering the makefiles.

YMMV of course ...
