I know a make file is a script, but Gump doesn't consider launching the
'make' executable a script. I think I ought be able to add a <make entry
that does launch it though, if needed.

Hmm, ok, yet another thing to launch. We could put these all into simple
(one liner) scripts, I guess. This is probaby better than Gump calling
command lines 'cos there is a better chance to insert platform intelligence,
if needed.

Ok, so if we encapsulated these command lines in scripts, then things are
simple again (from a launching point of view). What about inputs/outputs
though? Assume we can teach Gump about outputs of a build (libs, etc.) how
does it 'feed' those into subsequent rinses? Environment variable?
