[PATCH 0/3] Clean up: Makefile.in: Improve target specifications

[Michael Witten]

Here is a small patch series that took a while to produce:

  [0] Clean up: Makefile.in: Handle program targets correctly
  [1] Clean up: Makefile.in: Explicitly mark PHONY targets
  [2] Clean up: Makefile.in: Remove targets that are probably dead

Together, they make the overall changes:

  Makefile.in | 89 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------------------------------
  1 file changed, 44 insertions(+), 45 deletions(-)

The most important of these patches is [0], which fixes some
issues with how `$(EXEEXT)' is used. However, the other
patches will be a useful foundation for future improvements,
such as getting parallel make (`make -j') to handle
dependencies better.

Sincerely,
Michael Witten
