Just to be clear, the problem with mixing a pattern with a normal
target is what happens when there's a pattern prerequisite, right? I
mean, the example you gave at least has a sensical _possible_
interpretation, but this:
foo %.c: %.c.real ; @: cp $< $@
doesn't, so make _has_ to detect and throw an error there.
