These are both really about the autotools, which in turn are about  
the difficulties of applying "make" across incompatible environments.  
These difficulties are orders of magnitude smaller for "make" as a  
tool to script gEDA. My gEDA makefiles work without modification on  
Linux and MacOSX. Windows? Well, if you insist on using a maliciously  
incompatible system there will no doubt be a cost.
