Detail:
  * Some subtle bugs can be caused by including shared makefiles in the
    wrong order. To try to prevent further problems, and simplify main
    makefiles at the same time, CApp, CLibrary and CModule now include the
    makefiles they depend upon themselves, in the correct order: generally
    speaking, all macro (re)definitions should be before rule definitions.
  * Added sentry macro definitions to each makefile. These can be used to
    avoid repeated inclusion of makefiles - particularly important now that
    CApp, CLibrary and CModule do additional includes. This removes the
    majority of cases where amu produced warnings about multiple inclusion;
    a few components remain where this is still the case, but these
    warnings are harmless. If they bother you, simply remove the
    now-superfluous include statements from the relevant main makefile.
  * Created a CUtil shared makefile, for building transient utilities. The
    'C' in the name is more for consistency with CApp/CLibrary/CModule than
    anything to do with the 'C' language, since all of these makefiles work
    equally well for assembler and 'C' - the 'C' is for historic reasons.
  * Tweaked the debug rules in CApp to avoid harmless but annoying linker
    warnings about stubs being included twice.
  * Added several new default switches to ASFLAGS. These enable us to start
    making assembler source files work under a cross-assembler, because
    statements like
        GET  Hdr:Macros
        GET  Hdr:Machine.<Machine>
    are not portable, and tweaking the cross-assembler to understand these
    types of constructs would not be pretty. Instead, with the extra
    command line switches now introduced, you can use
        GET  Macros
        GET  Machine/$Machine

Version 5.12. Tagged as 'BuildSys-5_12'

Update CModule makefile fragment to use a default RESFSDIR if required. Add IIC module to OMAP3 components file.

Detail:
  Makefiles/CModule - makefile fragment now generates a default RESFSDIR value in an identical way to the AAsmModule fragment, easing migration of makefiles to the fragment system.
  Components/ROOL/OMAP3 - IIC module has been added to ROM image

  Tested on rev C2 beagleboard


Version 4.80. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_80'

Detail:
  * Updates to CModule makefile fragment to reduce the number of OS-specific
    rules in main Makefiles:
    + Added (RAM|ROM)(C|ASM)DEFINES variables. These allow the calling makefile
      to specify additional defines for RAM or ROM builds of C or assembler
      source files respectively. Traditionally this was done by having separate
      object files for RAM and ROM corresponding at least to whichever source
      file was responsible for interfacing with ResourceFS, but this requires
      messy additional rules. With this new approach, it is necessary to clean
      the component when switching between RAM and ROM builds, but I don't
      think this will affect many people's workflows.
    + Added CMHGDEPENDS. This should be used to specify which object files need
      a static dependency upon the h file autogenerated from the cmhg file.
      It should be specified in the usual form for object files passed to
      CModule - with neither an o. prefix nor a .o suffix.
  * Added TBOXINTLIB to ModuleLibs makefile fragment.
  * AsmUtils, HdrSrc, TCPIPheaders, ToolboxLib and UnicodeLib all upgraded in
    ModuleDB from EXP to ASM or C components, to permit them to be built in the
    install phase. As a result, those other Components files that didn't
    already do so now need to override this back to -type EXP.
  * BuildHost Components file edited to reflect the fact that binaof, binasm,
    modgen and ResGen now have separate install phases for executables and
    Docs files.
Admin:
  The new Components file uses various components that are not publicly
  released, so it can only sensibly be used internally by ROOL. However, it's
  more convenient for us to keep it alongside the other Components files - and
  it also serves as an illustration of how to do a disc build.

Version 4.77. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_77'

Detail:
  * Added new components file
  * Added entry for new HAL in the ModuleDB
  * Minor tweak to Makefiles:CModule so HALs can use shared Makefiles:
    no longer assumes that all callers wil have a non-null CMHGFILE
Admin:
  Used in a test build
