This business of doing moves makes me a little nervous. Wouldn't it
be simpler to use a C compiler (e.g. $(CC) -x c or somesuch)?
Also the use of $(MV) -f looks strange, I've never seen this kind of usage
(explicit use of -f) in Makefile before.
So please hold on this patch, and consider compiling b_*.c files using a
C compiler instead, thanks.
