Good idea, but it requires an order of magnitude more work to get right;
I'd much rather do it after I manage to get it disentangled from
Makefile.in.
Also, there's an awful lot of shared code at the moment and it might be
desirable to keep it shared. (Although I can actually think of two
rather elegant solutions using autogen...)
