Bits referring to multiple directories at once? Using a make flavor, that
already supports .CURDIR, but not .CURDIR:H? Do such things even exist?
Personally, when I need to build a sizable BSD program on another system, I
begin with building bmake (NetBSD's pkgsrc project helps with that). Or, if it
is not a big program, I just create a GNUmakefile from scratch -- gmake is
omnipresent these days.
