right.
I was hoping that someday we could have support in bsd.prog.mk
to handle multiple program names in ${PROG}, perhaps expanding
the dependencies using OBJS.prog1 OBJS.prog2 ... etc
.for i in ${PROG}
${i}: ${OBJS}.$i
.endfor
(i know it is more complex than this, with PROG_FULL and LDADD,
LDFLAGS and CFLAGS which may also be per-program)
