This appears to stick a : between every target in the CHAIN, which means
the build system will stall between every one.  Would it be possible to
get like a 'make expert-chain' that lets you specify the stall points
explicitly?

Otherwise, if I need to rebuild all X drivers for a new server ABI, I'll
be waiting on ~40 stall points.
