I've added a comment into Makefile as a stopgap measure.

Last I looked it didn't seem possible to achieve the functionality of
the build system without resorting to generated makefiles, which would
either imply the use of further external tools or yet another make
flavor. In light of the fact that orgmode was already using GNU make
extensions, it seemed more prudent to use GNU make extensions to a
fuller extent.

Achim.
