+# Generate compile-rules for the modules that we are using in libraries or
+# programs.  We are listing them explicitly because we have turned off the
+# suffix rules (to force compilation with the appropriate flags).  We could use
+# make-recursion but that would result in makefiles that are useless for
+# development.
+#
+# Variables:
+#	model directory into which objects are compiled.
+#	MODEL (uppercase version of "model"; toupper is not portable)
+#	echo (yes iff we will show the $(CC) lines)
+#	subset ("none", "base", "base+ext_funcs" or "termlib")
+#	crenames ("yes" or "no", flag to control whether -c & -o options are used)
+#	cxxrenames ("yes" or "no", flag to control whether -c & -o options are used)
+#	traces ("all" or "DEBUG", to control whether tracing is compiled in)
+#	srcdir is expanded when "configure --srcdir" was used
+#
+# Fields in src/modules:
+#	$1 = module name
+#	$2 = progs|lib|c++
+#	$3 = source-directory
