Two comments to add
1. The "old" syntax and the lua syntax can coexist somewhat, this is you
have a rule that is complicated enough to require lua it can, but you can
still use the standard tup syntax where it's not required.
2. For your specific problem, I feel like you could do something with
the standard syntax, although you would have to give up some of the
parallel build aspects. e.g.
cat Tupfile <<<EOF
: foreach *.c |> gcc -c %f -o %o |> %B.o {objs}
: foreach *_test.o | {objs} |> gcc -o %o %g.o %f |> %B
EOF

Hello again Thomas!
I guess there's no distinction into "old" (as in "legacy") and "new"
(as in "shiny") syntax. I think the only distinction is purely
chronological - the "old" syntax is in fact older then the lua syntax.
As to which one of these is better I think it's jus a matter of
preferences. For me the "old" syntax was too restrictive and I was more
than happy to switch to lua the moment it was available. In fact I've
heard that Mike is working on adding Python to tup (;
The syntax of lua may seem a bit strange at the first glance, but you
can do anything that is possible in the "old" syntax. If you have any
questions about tup+lua - just ask.
