	Particularly odd since editeng and framework are nice, new, clean
gnu-make-ised modules which should (in theory) work much better in this

	Bjoern - any thoughts ? Eike - we're hoping to land gnumake4 today /
tomorrow - which may improve things here.

	Could be; I've not seen it myself - but it'd be great to catch and nail

	Thanks !
