It seems most of package-info.in is generated from values set in the
Makefile (or generated via md5). Why not just put make variables in
the Makefile for the other couple static things and auto-generate it?
The information has got to be stored somewhere. package-info.in is a
template file that is used to autogenerate package-info. I'm trying
to move stuff out of the Makefile not put more stuff in it.
A compromise might be to make package-info.in be in a form that can be
included by make as well as processed by XEmacs to create package-info.
