Observation: should this really contain the prototype_com.new
development stuff (lines 39-96), its most confusing; I think
it would be better somewhere else (if its really required).

Being the original author of that code in
usr/src/pkgdefs/SUNWbind/Makefile I disagree.
At the time of integrating bind 9.3.3 I wondered just how the
prototype_com had been created and so asked the original author whom
exclaimed they had used a perl script which at that time they could not
find; sometime later a half finished script was sent to me. Thus rather
than have the next person wonder about how to create the file I wrote
the instructions into the Makefile so that they could be seen, reviewed
and understood. Interestingly there used to be a README in
usr/src/cmd/bind that explained some other useful stuff but alas that
was removed before the gate was made public and thus I'd rather keep the
secret to prototype_com in the Makefiles.
