Yeah. I haven't gotten around to documenting the process. It is an old system
and not very pretty - and yes it started out on a Solaris box back in the
stone age. But it works!

The 'cpp' used in the makefiles is this version:
http://daniel.haxx.se/projects/fcpp/ - It is basically a C preprocessor hacked
to get a few additional features.

'gnudate' is the GNU date command implementation. (I just symlink to the
/bin/date version on Linux)

I put both in a separate directory that I add to the $PATH when I want to run
make in the curl docroot.

There's some additional tools as well, but they might be slightly less
"crazy".
