Is the paragraph below correct?

Such a construct appears in quite a few places. It appears to work. It
will probably only break badly if := instead of = , but it is still
wrong: It means that the variable is not expanded by make. Rather, it is
expanded later on by the shell that expands and executes rules lines.
