Finally got round to looking at this. The code attached can be used to build the axiom/aldor interopability library (libaxiom.al). New features: Less abuse of make features (though I've only used a recent version of make, and have used some newer features) Dependency on java removed. Cleaner build

. Even once you've got your dependent signatures into axiom, it has to (presumably) be able to interpret them, which will need a more complex type matching process than what currently exists (I think). On the plus side, doing this is a good step towards a real compiler. &
