I found the documentation here:
https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Static-Pattern.html
I also checked that the feature has been around at least back to GNU
Make 3.81.
Anyway, it looks potentially very nice/useful, but with the above
apparent-error, I'm not sure how you express the rules we need. Note
that we do need to do something new about the .sub files, so I'm not
opposed to making some structural changes to the source tree to go
along with build system overhaul. I'd just like to keep the layout
reasonable and the semantics fully represented by source tree layout
rather than by makefile logic.
