Just a couple of thoughts

First, with a Makefile THIS advanced, you're missing something. That
would be depend files.

This is something more important than say telling me what server I'm
using, especially in an environment where you're going to be compiling
(hopefully) on an every day basis. Why depend files? It saves a lot of
time in the long run, and the system's GENERALLY smart enough to know
whether or not you've changed X header, or it needs to recompile x file
for X header.


Secondly, most rom,blah based pieces of work come with the filename.c
extension (I'm talking snippets here). So, you toss this into your
source directory and hope it works? naaah, just add the filename into
makefile manually. It'll save a lot of time there. This also allows for
you to have something like filename.c which you  KNOW doesn't compile,
but you want in there because  it's something you're testing, or working
on.

I like the idea of system specific stuff, but, I really don't see the
sense in it. Rom will compile under Linux (bsd included here) using the
same Makefile from what I've seen (and I have tested on the newer bsd
releases, redhat,slackware, etc).

Just my 0.02
