Touché. 

Yes, yes, I know, I should be using make. We all have a little bit of dinosaur 
blood in us. Some are stuck in assembler. I happen to be stuck in batch JCL 
compiles. I should learn make but it is never at the top of the critical path.

Questions:

1. Will make in fact solve this specific problem? Can one readily specify 
"global" compiler options for most modules and override them for specific 
modules?

2. What's a good learning source for make?

make.  For those who like that sort of thing.
