Except for the initial checkout of Makefile.  I have two versions of a
collection of software I manage in SCCS right now.  The version is
selected by a flag contained in the Makefile.  If there is no currently
checked out version, it gets the latest one.  "Standard" make won't do
this if RCS is used.  I'd love to run GNU software, but I just don't
have the disk space to spare ;-)
