Nope. In fact I meant exactly what I said.
Yes, the only comment color would be "#ppp", but makefile-mode also
colorizes make variable references.
In the above, the $e is interpreted by make and expanded to the value of
the make variable "e". Since this value is interpreted by make, it
should be colorized as a make variable reference by makefile-mode.
If you'd written:
e=z #ppp
z:
echo $$e
f=g date
then I would agree with your statement.
