Dependencies have been broken in LibGGI for a while.  I often have to
"make clean" or "rm blah/*.o" to get consistent results.

The linux kernel does dependencies a lot better than we do.  I guess we
need a real makefile guru (and to understand LibGGI's makefiles, you'd
*have* to be a guru :-) to step forth and give it a good polish.

"make" doesn't make the demos either.  It's kind of separate nowadays.
