I think this is great. +1

Any improvements in this area would be greatly appreciated.
In particular, my personal nit is that the Solaris build system lags behind
some other build systems for large OS-scope projects. For instance, we don't
have incremental linking (I can't build one .c file and link in .o files from
the gate's build which didn't change), and incremental builds are slow because
of relying on make to handle the dependencies dynamically, rather than
statically generating the dependency tree.

I think your proposal clearly defines the scope, and it appears that this is
just fine, any overlap would be healthy in this case.
