Grumble.  That's going to be a continuing maintenance pain, isn't it?
We need to find a way to extract the list from the src/port Makefile.

Well, it's platform dependent as it's set from configure, no?

I guess we could pull the "use on all platforms" set, and then just
append win32 specific ones, that should help a bit? If there is such a
list (don't have the code around right now) to read from.

That would probably help.  Currently the "all platforms" list is in
Makefile.global.in (part of the setup of $(LIBOBJ)), which is itself
a pretty crufty thing.  Not sure where better to put it though.
