This bothered me for a long time, too. The target/build variables were 
concatenated, which made it impossible to search for their definition 
unless you know about this trick. I just checked in a patch that makes 
their definition explicit, at the cost of some loss of generality. I 
think the improved readability/searchability is worth it.
