One advantage of using Makefile rules is that it's easy to override
the defaults, as you see in the examples above.
Not so hard with shell scripts either. Use source cfg.sh instead of
-include ./cfg.mk and everything

Converting to a stand-alone script is a fine and seductive idea.
About an yaer ago I had proposed a similar move for automake's own

Perl is well suited to this task.
I'm sure some will object to Perl's syntax, but not I.

Hi!
I recently wrote a mail with various remarks about how maint.mk syntax

Haible was kind enough to voice an opinion on items 2 and 3 of that

Thanks, Jim, for the swift reply this time!

1. main.mk fails its own checks:
The checks sc_makefile_at_at_check and sc_prohibit_undesirable_word_seq
both fail for me, as the maint.mk
