That's some pretty awful build machinery you've got going there. :-)

On the other hand, all the alternatives I can think of are worse --
and yours is better than what we've already got.  So, I think what
you're doing is good.

Perhaps you could remove one level of indirection by having
`configure' generate the right bits in `Makefile' directly, rather
than using an auxilliary makefile?  That seems a little cleaner to
me.  Thoughts?

Thanks a lot for tackling this stuff.
