Yeah.

This bit would still have to be in configure.  configure would just
select which object keywords end up in some list.

Basically I don't really like that the configure script has to be edited
when shuffling source files around.  Decisions about what to include or
exclude can be in configure, but decisions about the files themselves
should just be in makefile.
