title: Is it possible to have multiple .PHONY targets in a GNU makefile?
body: <p>For various reasons, it would be convenient for me to specify .PHONY in multiple parts of a makefile. I feel like I'm not correctly understanding how this works, but is this possible?</p>
  
  <p>Instead of <code>.PHONY: clean cleanall</code>
  do:</p>
  
  <pre><code>.PHONY: clean
  &lt;some text&gt;
  .PHONY: cleanall
  </code></pre>
