Does this leave Makefile.inc.local intact in the root dir? Those are used by

That includes me. Makefile.inc.local continues to be the way to
override Makefile varibles. I don't think that will ever change.
(the way this build system overrides make variables is decidedly
non-traditional, I get to live with that).
I've done some testing and it seems to work perfectly now. Thanks for
doing the cleanup work on our Makefile!
I kinda prefer Makefile.{ver|inc|inc.local} to be in the root dir. These
have user servicable parts inside.
Can you be specific? If there's something that can't be done with
Makefile.inc.local then we've a bug. Those files, what ever the
location, really should be read-only.
Thinking about it again, it's fine. As long as we update the reference
in the top level Makefile to explain mk/config.mk and mk/local.mk
The release script sets Makefile.ver to the proper version number. I
guess no one but scripts need to know about this, so the location
could actually also remain in mk/version.mk
