That rather tedious enumeration is something that rarely changes and

sure sometimes this is true.
in other cases, it boils down to a human-written list that contains
files that were non-relevant from the beginning...
Which files are non-relevant that are included in extra/Makefile?
anyhow, i'm not so objecting enumeration, but i'm very much objecting
enumeration of files for extra/pd~/ in extra/Makefile. shouldn't
they be
enumerated in extra/pd~/Makefile?
Or how about making 'extra' have a flat directory structure, that
would also simplify things. The symlinking in the existing extra
makefiles is horrendous, IMHO. I've wasted too much time on those
kludges.

Looking at things from a more basic level, you can come up with a more
direct solution... It may sound small in theory, but it in practice,
it can change entire economies. - Amy Smith
