What John wants is really these 2 steps.  Includes and libraries form a
usable subsset of the world, so it would be reasonable to have an end-user
target for it.  Hwowever, building that target robustly would involve a
lot more than the above.  All the tools for building the libraries would
have to be built, and that wouldn't work in this case.

Several other steps are missing.  Mainly "make obj" before "make
libraries".  "make obj" is now necessary before "make includes".
