It's not possible to build things without etoile.make. However if you want to 
build things outside of the SVN tree, you can copy etoile.make inside each 
module directory. In this case, it's up to you to build the modules and install 
them in the right order. I haven't tested this feature for ages, but it used to 
work. 

At the end of each module main GNUmakefile, you can see:
-include ../../etoile.make
-include etoile.make

This last line makes possible to build the module out of the SVN tree. If it 
doesn't work anymore, I can take a look.

Sounds good.

We'll have a CoreObject release pretty soon I think.

I would add UnitKit and EtoileText to this list. Once the new CoreObject is 
ready, I'll update EtoileText to support it.

Cheers,
Quentin.
