Forgive me, but have you ever considered a simpler make system with standard
include files for options?  I think most programmers are much more
comfortable working with a 1200 line include file than a 1200 line long
makefile.

As a side note, I'm finally getting enough time to start work on a VxWorks
port.  I'll be trying to get it running on a MIPSR3000(big endian mode) with
an IGST Cyberpro 5050 on the PCI bus.  In the process, I'd really like to
restructure the make system and the directory tree.  If its O.K. with
everyone, I'd like to make this alternate configuration available for
feedback.

Another side note:  The GPL'd code still exists in the tree I got from CVS
last night.  I don't know how much everyone cares, but that is a problem
because the GPL (from what I read at
http://gnu.sote.hu/philosophy/license-list.html#GPLIncompatibleLicenses) is
not compatible with the MPL.  So we're not allowed to link the two together.
Also it presents a problem for commercial developers(like myself) who
respect the wishes of the FSF(even though we may think they're highly
annoying! :) ).

Thanks!
Jason
