I like it!

Hmm, now this means I can no longer mess the build-improvements branch
without having Bill after me :-) :-)

I'll set priority to integrate your suggestion and merge a good part
of build-improvements to silver (after extensive testing and all
that).  Which means I have tp get back to Ralf soon.

I have more work on the makefile simplification in the pipeline, and I
would like to have them in.  I would like to support parallel build of
Axiom, because it takes just too long to compile sequentially.  I
don't have that implemented yet.  But good part of the work is in
testing.

I'll work with Camm for the GCL bits.

Thanks!
