Or because some of us have paying day jobs.  I've other things to do,
so I'll leave it to *you* to figure out why this works:
-----
define tgt
$(eval .PHONY: $(value 1)
$(value 1): destdir-unsafe)$(1):
endef

$(call tgt, target1)
        @echo something

$(call tgt, target2)
        @echo something2
