Easy. Add 'Makefile' to precious in =tagging-method. Add a 
.arch-inventory file containing "source ^Makefile$" to the 
directory where you want Makefile to be a source file.

In other words, =tagging-method describes the general/common 
 case and .arch-inventory files handle directory localized 
exceptions.
