Here's an example of what I use for my 8-bit AVR projects:

TARGET  = Simple-Servo
COMMON_OBJS = a2d_8.o Delay.o UART.o Hardware.o
include ../Rules.mk

If you want to view the Rules.mk file, you can find it over here:
<http://svn.rungie.com/websvn/filedetails.php?repname=Buildroot&path=%2Fbranches%2Fprojects%2Frobostix%2FRules.mk&rev=0&sc=0>

If you're prompted for a username/password, just use the word gumstix for both.

This particular Makefile assumes that $(TARGET).o will be a target as well.
