Hello!
Trying to catch up with the mailing lists :-)
I'm surprised that this patch has not been applied since October. I
believe it's very valuable. I even considered doing it myself.

This would be wrong. This is only acceptable in the developer's
environment, i.e. not in the makefiles created by "make dist". But I see
no serious reason to generate different makefiles in this case.
