The := syntax is usually used as ${FOO:%.c=%.o}, so any percent
character is interpreted specially, as documented in the make(1) man page.

Fortunately, there is another search-and-replace mechanism that doesn't
treat percent characters specially:

${MASTER_SITE_SOURCEFORGE:@ms@${ms}liferea/Liferea%20Stable/1.6.0/@}
