Well, there are two choices.
1) create a makefile rule for creating each alias file. I think this
is not as easily maintainable, but is probably the more proper
"make" solution in a strict sense.
2) create a temp file that acts as a "have done it" flag. This is
what the patch below does and it's trivial and prevents a double
make unless "make clean" or the makefile is touched.
3) ?
I'm leaning slightly toward 2, and thus my patch:
