Hi Nicu!

        Actually, I want to go in the other direction: wean ccan off
Makefiles entirely.  The ones there are simply for my convenience, and
for bootstrapping.

The plan (on my psueod-infinite TODO list) is to have a ccantool which
generates the appropriate Makefile/cmake/waf/autoconf etc. fragments for
the chosen CCAN modules.  CCAN modules themselves are build-system
agnostic.

Cheers,
Rusty.
