Thanks for this tip. This is the kind of thing I was hoping this thread
would unearth. This seems kind of like rake from ruby, where the build
scripts are written in the language you are building from. That is more
aligned with what I am trying to do here.

This is what I do now. I thought (hoped?) maybe someone else had worked
out something similar, and had a better idea.
