Oh, just to be clear, the bit of the larger debian patch that is liable to be
useful
in the upstream Makefile would be the build/%.o: %.cpp style targets, and
associated
changes, as they make the Makefile more able to work in a directory other than
the
source directory, but should still work in the traditional in-tree manner as
well.

I don't have much time or attention to devote to maintaining the Makefile, and
it's not a priority. Even applying
other people's patches takes work and judgement, as they sometimes have
differing ideas about how things
should work or what dependencies can be required. I've already had patches
from some people break things for
others.
Still, I'll send email to the developers list and maybe someone will have a
good idea of how to maintain it.

I just want to chime in with support for not removing the Makefile. Of course a
broken Makefile is not ideal, but last time I tried it was possible to get it
into a
usable state without too much effort; certainly a better starting point than
nothing
at all.
I'd also be willing to put in an effort to maintaining it.
