I guess it was the other discussion where you disagreed ;-)

True. My original suggestion (to temporarily change simple mode
to recursive mode inside func_call() ) won't work for the following
case:

x := $$2
a := $$1 $$x
b := $(call a,foo,bar)

I guess adding a flag to variable_expand_string() would do the trick
but this is a more extensive change.
