Oh, you noticed that?

A partial remedy is to get as many people as possible to read
Kernighan & Plauger's "Software Tools" and Kernighan & Pike's
"The UNIX Programming Environment".  Software toolkits still
make good sense, but lots of people just aren't aware of the
ramifications.

Bentley's "Programming Pearls" also has good examples of
toolkit usage.
