I'd like to suggest that it be made possible to compile gnu make without
needing a working make to begin with.  Apparently Sun doesn't ship make
with minimal Solaris systems, so I lost.

No doubt I can find a Solaris binary somewhere, but still!

It shouldn't be too hard to write a script that will translate the existing
Makefile into a list of the commands necessary to do the first full compile.
