Including the gem:
"the language in which make was written (C) leaves plenty of room for
programming mistakes"
Which seems to be confusing things a little ... as that might be seen as a
justification for rewriting "make" itself in Python :o) but forcing people to
write build scripts almost entirely in python seems like less of a step forward
than simply improving make to cope with more than one file being built in a
single step (yacc, etc).
