in reply to ExtUtils::MakeMaker, Makefile.PL: modify existing targets like "all" (as in make all) or "install"

I'm not sure I understand the documentation correctly, but what about
depend => {all => 'translations'},
(unless all is given a double-colon rule.)
map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]

    yes, I do not know who gave all a double-colon rule but it has one: *** target file 'all' has both : and :: entries.  Stop.
