Hi Erik:
The checked in modules.list file defines the dependencies between
modules for the build. The dependency information in this file is
already captured in the modules.xml. Rather than keeping two copies of
this information, with this change, modules.list is generated during
the build.
Chris provided the java implementation for the actual list generation.
I've made the makefile changes.

Looks good to me.
