I like the way X 11.3 does it -- you have one tree of sources, and for each
make you create a tree of links into it.  Common sources, seperate binaries.
Combine this with the standard #ifdef's and such, and you've got a workable
system.  Of course, I'm still trying to figure out how X figures out what
kind of machine you're making it on.
