Auto-completing maint* is causing me problem already... while this is
very minor, it also occurred to me that "cfg" is rather incorrect.
maint-cfg.mk will likely contain a lot of local maintainer rules.
How about maint.mk and local.mk?
I've also discovered that maint-cfg.mk (or local.mk) is a very useful
place to put rules for various build environments. E.g.:
W32ROOT ?= $(HOME)/w32root
mingw32: autoreconf
./configure $(CFGFLAGS) --host=i586-mingw32msvc
--build=`./config.guess` --prefix=$(W32ROOT)
Then I don't have to remember how to build it for mingw32 anymore.
