Then */Makefile would include */Makefile.in and Rules.mak, Rules.mak
itself would again include the Makefile.in's, which is ugly.
I think that Rules.mak should not include anything except maybe
.config.

After 1.1 is branched, i was thinking about changing */Makefile to
have their includes in a more appealing order.

What do you think about this and what should we do now for SORT_BIG?
