Hmmm. True! (Actually, I'm waiting for the release of make 4.5, since
I use
MAKEFLAGS += --no-builtin-rules
MAKEFLAGS += --no-builtin-variables
in my makefile, which is problematic with ?= at the moment, and so I use

I will try. Sorry, for not being too quick, but at home I don't like
using the laptop too much. I'll be traveling soon to FOSDEM, so I'll
have an excuse to try those patches. ;)
