But I was thinking of loadable modules like in emacs instead of a rigid and limited set of predefined rules. If we think of make as a preprocessor for shell-scripts, then we can create a preprocessor for OCaml that will do the same but will benefit from many built-in properties that sh doesn't have and that (GNU) make hardly provides.
