+Given these rules and asked to build @file{bar.o} where both
+@file{bar.c} and @file{bar.f} exist, @code{make} will choose the first
+rule and compile @file{bar.c} into @file{bar.o}.  In the same
+situation where @file{bar.c} does not exist, then @code{make} will
+choose the second rule and compile @file{bar.f} into @file{bar.o}.
+
+If @code{make} is asked to build @file{lib/bar.o} and both
+@file{lib/bar.c} and @file{lib/bar.f} exist, then the third rule will
+be chosen since the stem for this rule (@samp{bar}) is shorter than
+the stem for the first rule (@samp{lib/bar}).  If @file{lib/bar.c}
+does not exist then the third rule is not eligible and the second rule
+will be used, even though the stem is longer.
