It's hard to make it right, but I went through great efforts to make the farbfeld makefile[1] truly portable. Another good resource and closer to your needs is the, also portable, slstatus makefile[2]. We need to stop falling for the fallacy that "portable" means "works with BSDmake and GNUmake". Truly portable means consistent with the POSIX spec.
