mm only knows about things that are built and installed through
src/etc/Makefile. It would be possible to add other Makefiles to that
mix, but what I want to be very careful NOT to do is to give mm a bunch
of "special knowledge" about various files in the system because that
becomes very hard to keep up to date, deal with upgrades across
milestones, etc.
That said, I think that the issue of mm updating loader.rc has come up
in the past, and it was vetoed by people who understand the loader stuff
a lot better than I do.
