  I thought those considering the problem of a "makefile maker" might
be interested to know that the Cambridge University Modula2 system for
BSD4.1 includes the "mm2m" command, which automatically generates
makefiles for Modula2 programs.  Of course, the problem is much simpler
for Modula2 than for C, where IMPORT statements in the code make it
clear where routines are located.

  The Cambridge Modula-2 package has very nice utilities; too bad the
code generated by the compiler is, as they put it, "far from optimal".
