Good point.  Very good point -- now why didn't I see that, dammit?
Aha!  Hidden away at the end of the make(1) man page:

    make -V .MAKEFILE_LIST | tr \  \\n

OK -- I think I can work that in without too much major surgery.  Good
timing though -- I was literally just writing a port submission for
version 1.0, which is sitting on my website already to go...
http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/portindex/ if you're interested.
Functionality is just about identical to 0.3, but I've added all the
ExtUtils::MakeMaker gubbins to make it all installable.  Seems the
port is going to be postponed for a while now.

	Cheers,

	Matthew
