[bug #57751] Improve POSIX support for SCCS

[Paul D. Smith]

Follow-up Comment #15, bug #57751 (project make):

RE: what POSIX says about internal macros and where they are valid: I agree
with Jörg that no POSIX-based make supports $@ in prerequisite lists. 
However I agree with Bruce that the standard is at best ambiguous about this
and I've filed:

to request clarification.

RE: handling $$@ : it's not true that GNU make doesn't support this: GNU make
_DOES_ support this syntax but you have to enable it; see:

https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Secondary-Expansion.html

There has been thought about making it enabled by default but it hasn't
happened yet.
