Typo in The GNU Make Manual

[Mikko Tapani Reinikainen]

Hello,

I think I have located a small typo in The GNU Make Manual
http://www.gnu.org/manual/make/. In the section Phony Targets there is
this example:

----
By declaring the subdirectories as phony targets (you must do this as the
subdirectory obviously always exists; otherwise it won't be built) you
can remove these problems:

SUBDIRS = foo bar baz

.PHONY: subdirs $(SUBDIRS)

subdirs: $(SUBDIRS)

$(SUBDIRS):
        $(MAKE) -C $
                   ^^
foo: baz
----

Shouldn't there be "$@" in the position marked with ^^?

The unaltered version of the example gives the following error message:

----
