BTW, isn't it generally considered a good idea to not use @fooo@
substitutions directly in make rules, but rather use them indirectly via
a make variable?

E.g., instead of:

   some_dep: @blargh@ other_stuff

Use:

   BLARGH = @blargh@
   ...
   some_dep: $(BLARGH) other_stuff

[Where the definition of BLARGH is near the beginning of the makefile
with other var defs.]
