However, NORMAL_C and related macros have always depended on it being
defined to something reasonable so that they can abuse it in explicit
rules.

BSD make can handle simple cases like this using pattern filters and
substitution. E.g.:
%%%
ABNORMAL_C=3D ${CC} -c ${CFLAGS} ${WERROR} ${PROF} ${.ALLSRC:M*.c:S/^foo_//=
}
# Untested more careful patterns: ${.ALLSRC:M^foo*.c$:S/^foo_//}
bar.o: foo_bar.c stuff.nonc
=09${ABNORMAL_C}
%%%
This has no alternative of using .IMPSRC instead of .ALLSRC since its
=2EIMPSRC is empty with the above dependencies. The rule for getting a
nonempty .IMPSRC in an explicit dependency with BSD makef seems to be:
some of the sources must match the target according to a suffix
rule; then the first matching one (according to the order of the
sources in the dependency list for the target) becomes .IMPSRC,
so .IMPSRC always contains either 0 or 1 name.
I've don't remember having seen the exact rule documented.
