I have seen a rule in Python’s Makefile
-PYTHONPATH=$(DESTDIR)$(LIBDEST) $(RUNSHARED) \
$(HOSTPYTHON) -Wi -tt $(DESTDIR)$(LIBDEST)/compileall.py \
-d $(LIBDEST) -f \
-x 'bad_coding|badsyntax|site-packages|lib2to3/tests/data' \
$(DESTDIR)$(LIBDEST)
The dash in front of the command is to let `make` never mind the return value of the command and continue executing the next command.
