No it doesn't. If it did, it idiomatic rules such as
binary: $(OBJS)
$(CC) -o $< $(OBJS)
would not work.
It is even easy to check this:
pc-043:~/foo$ cat Makefile
foo = a b
bar:
./echonum $(foo) stop
pc-043:~/foo$ cat echonum
#! /bin/sh
while true ; do
echo $1
[ "$1" = stop ] && exit 0 ;
shift
done
pc-043:~/foo$ gmake bar
./echonum a b stop
a
b
stop
pc-043:~/foo$ gmake --version
