This looks good, with a couple of tweaks. I don't think we are going to be
making these kinds of changes in the 8.2 and 8.3 branches, so I suggest you
prepare a patch for 8.4. Some of the makefiles have changed, so a bit of
work might be involved.

I was wondering, what is the difference between these? And couldn't we just
use $(CURDIR) instead?

What is the status of this bug? Shouldn't it be fixed instead?
