AAsmModule:
 Remove SA_DEBUG override, instead use ASDFLAGS like CModule does.
CModule:
 If the target is 'debug' allow CMHGDFLAGS to pass extra defines into CMHG, this avoids the common problem of having to have 2 CMHG files and select between them.

Other - sync the messages token check/copying, use ${NOP} and ${FAPPEND} and ${DO}, and od.${RES_OBJ} isn't dependent on ${DIRS} since it already has that when creating o.${RES_OBJ}.

Version 6.50. Tagged as 'BuildSys-6_50'

AAsmModule:
The preferred override is now 'CUSTOMRES' to match CModule, though the former 'RESOURCES' is still accepted as a transitional step.
The internal phoney targets (like resources-None) can no longer be augmented with :: since that doesn't make sense.
Copied some block comments from CModule so they're easier to compare.
Fixed the resourcesno/resourcesNo never appearing, this is because when CUSTOMRES=no you end up with two rules called resourcesno and no rule called resources.
CModule:
Added resources_res and resources_messages and resources_templates as well as RESOURCEEXTRA support (from AAsmModule).
Copied some block comments from AAsmModule so they're easier to compare.

Tested in an IOMD ROM resources phase.

Version 6.48. Tagged as 'BuildSys-6_48'

Detail:
  Makefiles/CApp:
  * Naming of object file variables rationalised in line with CModule
  * Noted that INSTAPP_VERSION files must also be present in INSTAPP_FILES for
    compatibility with GNUmakefiles - requires changes to individual top-level
    makefiles, but not BuildSys
  Makefiles/CLibrary:
  * Naming of object file variables rationalised in line with CModule
  Makefiles/CModule:
  * Removed unused variable OBJS_
  Makefiles/StdTools:
  * Retired TIDYDESC
  GNUmakefiles/AppLibs:
  * Add CONLIB, RMVSN, SYNCLIB
  GNUmakefiles/CApp:
  * Default definition of INSTAPP
  * Naming of object file variables rationalised in line with CModule
  * CLEAN_DEPEND removed, clean made a double-colon rule (it's worth noting
    that such additional clean rules are now only executed from the component's
    top-level directory: this was not true for the old extra_clean rules that
    this replaces, in the GNUmakefiles case)
  * Rename of INSTALLAPPFILES to INSTAPP_FILES
  * Rename of INSTALLAPP_DEPEND to INSTAPP_DEPENDS
  * Insertion of component version into Desc files now done using AwkVers
    script rather than the C preprocessor (note, will require editing of Desc
    files to comply). Also supports versions in Messages and !Run files,
    controlled by new variable INSTAPP_VERSION
  GNUmakefiles/CLibrary:
  * Naming of object file variables rationalised in line with CModule
  * clean rules now only executed from the component's top-level directory, as
    with CApp
  GNUmakefiles/StdTools:
  * Added INSERTVERSION (AwkVers), retired TIDYDESC
  * Perl scripts now explicitly passed to perl - no need to chmod +x the
    scripts in RiscOS/Library
  * asasm/objasm include paths and APCS/Machine/UserIF predefines set to match
    Makefiles

  Tested in a CTools build

Version 6.32. Tagged as 'BuildSys-6_32'

Modify makefile fragments to generate GPA & symbol files when building ROM modules. Add HangWatch to ModuleDB.

Detail:
  Makefiles/AAsmModule, Makefiles/CModule - Modified to generate GPA (for assembler) and symbols (for C) files when building ROM modules. These files are copied into the install folder, allowing them to easily be picked up by debugging tools.
  ModuleDB - Added entry for HangWatch module
Admin:
  Makefile changes tested with BCM2835, OMAP3, and Disc builds


Version 5.87. Tagged as 'BuildSys-5_87'

The CLEAN_DEPEND intermediate was added because GNU make didn't support '::' notation, but GNU nake 3.81 (possibly earlier) does as described at
  http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html#Double_002dColon
verified with two test makefiles
# This is 'makefile'
include ./other.mk
clean::
	@echo 1
	@echo 2
# This is 'other.mk'
CLEANALIAS = clean
${CLEANALIAS}::
	@echo 3
	@echo 4
which did what was required.

Version 5.42. Tagged as 'BuildSys-5_42'

Do actively report when the CMHG file is deleted in CModule.
Add PRISMLIB to the available module libraries.
Components files updated to pass USB driver switches via CDEFINES not
CFLAGS.
Tested with OMAP3 ROM build, other components files modified by eye but
not tested.

Version 5.39. Tagged as 'BuildSys-5_39'

Detail:
  A line in this makefile evaluates CFLAGS so that the default static data
  relocation and stack checking options can be inserted before any overrides
  from the top-level makefile. But this was being done before StdTools was
  included, so C_STKCHK had not yet been defined, so if the top-level makefile
  tried to use it, it had no effect.
Admin:
  Tested using new FrontEnd makefile.

Version 5.13. Tagged as 'BuildSys-5_13'

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

  Tested in a ROM build

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
Admin:
  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

Version 4.68. Tagged as 'BuildSys-4_68'
