Fixed.  If you don't escape the ":" it will still fail (right now we get an infinite loop so that needs to be addressed but that's a different bug) but without the escape it's not a legal syntax.

Using this makefile:

$ cat Makefile
.PHONY: foo.bar
.SECONDEXPANSION:
foo: $$(@\:%=%.bar); @echo $^

$ make
Makefile:3: Malformed target-specific variable definition
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
