    Surely the right tool for this job is the (or a?) makefile?  If we're
    going to fix the problem, we might as well fix it properly.

A fix in the makefile is better than no fix, but it is troublesome
because it would require major changes in something which is now very
simple.  Practically speaking, we would be much better off if you could
solve this by changes in the cc-mode files themselves.
