[bug #30370] add a shorthand syntax for foreach-eval-call

[Paul D. Smith]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #30370 (project make):

The major issue here, besides the effort involved of course, is finding a
syntax or format that is backward compatible, at least enough to avoid
breaking a lot of makefiles.

I also have to say that the request at stackoverflow.com and the request you
make below are actually fundamentally different; it appears you are looking
for a programmatic way to create large numbers of explicit rules, that is more
flexible than existing static pattern rules.

The request at stackoverflow.com appears to be looking for a much more
flexible method of defining pattern rules, where there can be multiple
patterns in both the target and prerequisite lists.
