Some simple auto* questions. I dare to ask them here - the result
will help in creating some new Makefiles in our sources, so ...

What's the canonical way of referencing the object files with the auto* tools,
e.g. the objects for a library within Makefile.am?

Some rules have to use this and I'm not sure whether I should
use 
 foo.o
 foo.lo
 foo.$(OBJEXT)
 ...

(as a matter of fact .o and .lo have been used in our Makefiles!)


Another related question: to transform a list of files e.g.  
  SRCS= foo.c bar.c ...
one could use some GNUMake extensions which would not work 
with another make tool. As I confess I use GNUMake on all systems
I have access to, so I never cared about this issue. Do our Makefiles as
generated by auto* really work with common unix make versions?
