我想使用.SECONDEXPANSION：如http://make.mad-scientist.net/secondary-expansion所述。我有以下makefile：
.SECONDEXPANSION:
x.deps := y.foo
%.foo: $$($$*.deps)
echo $@
不幸的是，当我尝试make x.foo时，我得到了
make: *** No rule to make target `.foo'. Stop.
使用-Rd运行它，我得

我认为它不起作用，因为根据文档，＆＃34;没有一个隐含规则可以在链中出现多次。＆＃34;但这正是我所需要的 - 让x.foo解析为y.foo，它解析为没有依赖关系的规则。我的应用程序需要统一（* .foo）命名方案。任何人都可以提出解决方案吗？不幸的是，顺便说一句，我必须使用make 3.81，而不是更近期的东西。
