Follow-up Comment #5, bug #30370 (project make):

I agree with Paul. The discussion on stackoverflow is talking about a more
general mechanism, namely having pattern rules with multiple stems. I think if
we were to consider such an extension, then it is better to go all the way and
add support for regex-based patterns (which, BTW, are requested regularly by
users).

What you are proposing is a convenient syntax to define a set of old-style
pattern rules. The more general pattern rules will be able to handle your case
but not vice-versa.
