I'm saying look at the diff.
I'm also saying that my solutions works in 100% of the cases the 
old/reverted form does not.

The makefile is cleaner and more performant.
The duplication of a tiny utility for build purposes is a red herring.

to recap:
1) the fortune makefiles are a lot cleaner
2) it builds fortune ports in more (all) cases

It's just superior.
There's no technical basis for reverting it.
