As I mentioned before: wildcards in the target won't work with all make
programs. And also they usually only expand to existing files, not
missing files. BSD make mentions this explicitly:
Targets and sources may contain the shell wildcard values `?', `*', `[]',
and `{}'. The values `?', `*', and `[]' may only be used as part of the
final component of the target or source, and must be used to describe ex-
isting files.
