I tried quite a bit of permutation (all others failing) before
selecting this one (shame on me, with a stackoverflow hint [!!!]).

But I finally found the relevant documentation reference:

https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html#Static-Pattern

A simpler wildcard rule would not be enough, as the already existing
wildcard used to build plain c files will take precedence.

nat6to4 did not need this fancy syntax, as it was a simple, single
target single pre-req rule - that takes precedence on the mentioned
wildcard.

Please let me know if the above clarifies a bit the scenario.

Cheers,

Paolo
