Make means statting.  Statting is slow.

My dynamic index generator reads a 'log' of sorts produced by the debbugs
incoming cleaner.  It then only processes those files.

I've done the makefile/postgres db thing for a website before.  The makefile
wasn't large at all, as it generated a makefile fragment by running a database
query.

But I will consider it, at least.
