[bug #63417] .NOTINTERMEDIATE with no prerequisites is not working

[Dmitry Goncharov]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #63417 (project make):

Thank you for your report.

At makefile parse time make processes .NOTINTERMEDIATE and marks all files as
notintermediate. The issue with this example, is that at that time make does
not yet have a notion of x.b. x.b appears later at build time, when make
performs implicit search to find a rule to build x.a.
We had a test, but the test was broken.
A fix is in the attachment.
