Marc, how's this coming? We still need this documented somewhere, if
it's not being put into CVS. And documenting what it is could be a good
starting point for somebody else to put it into the Makefile, if you
don't have the time to work on that part yourself.

But not having it documented *or* in the Makefile just sucks...
