Indeed.  Since 4BSD still has a boring old make, I use a script
wrapped around `sed' to do the job:

	OBJS=	...
	SRCS=	`chgsuf .o .c` ${OBJS}
	lint: ${SRCS}
		lint ${LINTFL} ${SRCS}

The addsuf and chgsuf scripts (in /usr/local/bin) are trivial.
(Note that these break if the new suffix contains an `&'.  Sorry :-) )

#! /bin/sh
#
# addsuf - add suffix to each argument
# assumes no embedded spaces in arguments

case $# in 0) echo "usage: addsuf suffix files" 1>&2; exit 1;; esac

suf="$1"
shift
echo ${1+"$@"} | sed -e "s/ /$suf /g" -e "s/$/$suf/"

#! /bin/sh
#
# chgsuf - change suffix in each argument
# assumes no embedded spaces in arguments
# oldsuf is a string, not an R.E.

case $# in 0|1) echo "usage: chgsuf oldsuf newsuf files" 1>&2; exit 1;; esac

sed="sed -e s/[/.^[\*]/\\\\&/g"
oldsuf="`echo \"$1\" | $sed`"
newsuf="`echo \"$2\" | $sed`"
shift; shift
echo ${1+"$@"} | sed -e "s/$oldsuf /$newsuf /g" -e "s/$oldsuf$/$newsuf/"
