No it won't. This example uses a pattern rule: pattern rules behave
differently in this respect: multiple LHS targets are all considered to
be updated with one invocation of the command script.
The problem is that not every target/prerequisite relationship can be
expressed as a pattern rule. For those that can't you're SOL.

No doubt about it. Very unsatisfying.
