Heresy.

:)

The boot-floppies installer is worse than what he describes, as it does

build::  some dependency
        $(MAKE) foo
        $(MAKE) bar
        $(MAKE) baz

Which tends to mean that if the build fails halfway through, you have to
go through all the steps again, which on a <100MHz PowerMac isn't fun.
