I guess I sort of lost the track on the recent etoile.make development.

Does the dependency handling still work? Is there documentation for the
current state of etoile.make and especially how to use it?
The big problem that I have with it is that the applications I write are
not compilable outside a full checkout of the Etoile repository when
it's included, although they depend on hardly anything from it. For
example, DictionaryReader only relies on UKNibOwner. I see the inclusion
of the UKNibOwner class into DictionaryReader as a perfectly feasible
solution for people who don't want to compile on basis of an Etoile
system, but as long as there's the dependency to etoile.make, it still
requires modification before compiling.
In some makefiles, I have seen the use of the 'etoile' variable. If I
check for that variable before including etoile.make, will a project
compile without the whole Etoile system then?
Something like this:
ifeq($(etoile), yes)
include ../../../etoile.make
endif
Cheers,
Guenther
