I've been struggling for some time now with how to write rules for
commands that generate multiple targets
A familiar and annoying problem: make really believes in commands that
generate just one (relevant) file, and doesn't fit so well with ones
that generate several.
The next thing to try
Correcting myself: I missed out the $@ in
y.tab.h y.tab.c y.output: yacc.ts
tar xf $ -m $@
which ensures that each target is the only thing extracted when the
rule to generate it is executed,

instead of a touch-file, use a tar-file !
Yeah, one of my company's makefiles uses a similar intermediate file to good
effect. We've been using the touch-file or sentinel solution elsewhere for
years. I'd previously suggested replacing the sentinels with tar files so we
could get rid of all
