If the file (listfiles.txt) has a syntax like "SRC = file1.c
file2.c ..." then you can include it with:

include listfiles.txt

If not, then you'll have to use $(shell ...).  Since you appear to be on
Windows I'm not sure how exactly to do it; on UNIX you'd say:

SRC := $(shell cat listfiles.txt)

Maybe on Windows you'd use "type" instead of "cat"?  I haven't used
Windows in many years.
