That is something I can answer... I guess.

The Makefile here is the standard template from the ps2sdk to build a 
ps2 iop module. Note that in the Ancient Time, this makefile was 
actually under the BSD license (which one, I can't remember, but it was 
The One GPL Compatible). All the rest of the code is Robert's.

I know Robert hates Makefiles, and I all cases, I'd be quite incapable 
to "rewrite" this Makefile in any other way than removing the banner, 
since it's quite... errr... straightforward. Note that ALL variable 
names has to stay as-it, since they are used in the PS2SDK's rules which 
are included at the bottom. So feel free to suggest any rewriting of 
this file.
