Your help is much appreciated. Someone once wrote an autoconfigure script
for mwrank (for when I used to distribute that, pre-sage, now part of
eclib). I never understood it properly and it was nightmare to ever
change. More recently William himself (I think) fixed it but I ditched it
altogether soon after eclib became part of Sage (the mwrank distribution
had its own entirely independent Makefile, and did not divide the code
into 4 subdirectories as with eclib). I am certain that there is lots of
crud in those makefiles since they were not rewritten from scratch for the
distribution but just slightly trimmed from prehistoric makefiles which
had evolved over many years. It would be a good thing (I suppose) to do
that rewriting; but certainly not before the end of term.
