    Does anyone know why some variables in our Makefiles use $() and some ${} ?

I think it is just a matter of two different styles that were
initially written by different people.  Nothing important.

    Also why the ugly ${lispsource}loaddefs.el instead of ${lispsource}/loaddefs.el ?

If lispsource ends in a slash, we don't want to add another one.
