I'm rewriting the Linux makefile. The existing one works well and is

uses weird string expansions and stuff.
Back when I wrote it that was the only method I could find to avoid
repeating a lot of stuff for all OSs, builds, unittests, etc. Recently,
inspired by Walter, I decided to go with a different approach that relies on
recursive make invocations. That simplifies matters drastically: no more
string expansions, no more '$$', no more crap.
By this I'm asking you what you'd like to see in the makefile. What are
the builds that you need and use, and what builds you'd like to use that
aren't there?
make clean => removes all targets built by the makefile
make zip => creates a zip file of all the sources (not targets) referred to
by the makefile, including the makefile
make release => makes release build of the library (this is also the default
target)
make doc => makes html documentation
make debug => makes debug build of the library
make unittest => builds all unittests, runs them, deletes all built unittest
files upon successful completion
make install => copies library to /usr/lib
Something I've just noticed: druntime uses "make doc" to make the
docs, while phobos uses "make html".
We should use the same build name for both. Probably druntime should change.
Also doc building doesn't work out of the box on Windows.
I fixed this by adding these lines to the top of Phobos win32.mak:
DOCSRC = ../docsrc
STDDOC = $(DOCSRC)/std.ddoc
and replacing std.ddoc by $(STDDOC) elsewhere.
