 Task: Find out why this is a kludge, whether upstream Makefile has
 already been fixed or not. If yes, remove kludge and replace with
 non-kludge. If no, file upstream wishlist request to have Makefile
 fixed.

This is meant to build only an exim daemon without the utility
binaries like exigrep, exiqsum et al. We only need them once, build
them with exim4-daemon-light, and thus try to build only the daemon
for -heavy and -custom by calling a subset of the prerequisites of the
allexim target in build-tree/build-$OS-$ARCH/Makefile.

I have filed an upstream bug to have this fixed, marking this bug as
forwarded.

Greetings
Marc
