It's a few lines of duplication, as opposed to adding another point of failure to the build process, i.e. common.mak isn't found or the wrong one is found, etc.
I'd have difficulty agreeing with this. If dmd is found then whatever is there is found. It's a deterministic process, not an arbitrary path lookup dependent on system vagaries.
Plus... duplication only grows.
I've always tended to avoid using make macro include's for this reason.
I think I failed to grasp the reason. Andrei
