I cannot commit the patch as is, since it's going to break etoile.make  
on Solaris.
The backquotes around the comments were the only trick that seemed to  
work everywhere until now :-/

 From etoile.make:

I think I'm going to remove the comments and refactor each code piece  
into a standalone rule or define. It's probably not a bad thing since  
backquoting comments as I do is a ugly hack.

Cheers,
Quentin.
