I'll be less violent, will probably bail out earlier (I like to keep my
teeth) and also keep away from nails as much a possible, but I'll fight
on Warner's side :-)

I admit we already have too much FreeBSD-ism in the *.mk files, but I
don't think we should monopolize it's use. What we do in our source tree
is not radically different from what everybody else is doing, which is
to build libraries and/or binaries. I suspect we put the *.mk files in
/usr/share for a reason as well...
