Thanks, Will! I succeeded to merge Harmony tree into my local copy: $ svn propget svn:externals src/gc gen http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/harmony/enhanced/drlvm/trunk/vm/gc_gen/src
Then I fixed Manifest.pm to process external entries correctly and started to understand that MANIFEST is used mainly for bundling of the product. It seems to me that it is not used for Makefile generation. Is it true that config/gen/makefiles/root.in is hand-written? Thanks!
