I reject this patch.

I explained one reaon before: I want to be able to see  what's  going
on  in a Makefile. Distributing this information is often bad, and it
is especially bad if you do this in an uncontrolled way  (like  using
wildcards).

Note that I will reject all other patches that make assumptions  like
this and your previous Makefile patch.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
