RE: using .ONESHELL with just some targets

FWIW: Not to my knowledge.

You *can* usefully use [Target\-specific Variable 
Values](https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html#Target_002dspecific) 
to set .SHELL for selected targets. 

But the documentation does not indicate any similar provision for .ONESHELL.

It would be nice if Gnu make supported it, perhaps with hijacking the syntax 
for "order only" prerequisites; something like:

        my/rule.txt: precond1 precond2 | .ONESHELL
