Ah, right, the joys of maintaining multiple build systems.  I wonder
if there's any way to avoid that by scraping file lists from one
group to the other.  We got a little spoiled perhaps by the MSVC

Or maybe we could have a file common to both, say OBJS, which both
scrape in their own way.  That could be easier than one scraping the
other.
