      Improvements to shared makefiles · 684d01e3

      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
