Normally I don't either, on the theory that something valueable
may someday be added to do-whatever and be generic in nature, but
since you're defining NO_BUILD,  it only seems to complicate the
Makefile by using a less-known variable.  Besides that, I don't
understand why pre-build even gets run when NO_BUILD is defined,
and I don't like to depend on things I don't understand.  :)

[I assume pre-build still gets run, that is...  I haven't
actually tried it and am merely trusting your message :]
