I grepped the entire GNU make source code for the message "make multiple target patterns" and didn't find it. Can you be more specific about the problem? A small simple makefile that illustrates it, along with the command you invoked, the output you got (all cut/pasted please) and why you feel this output is wrong or insufficient would be best.
