Would it be a good idea to first implement guile "just as it is"?
I see some benefits for me in this, as i could start to write some
functions in guile and get known to it.  Making more internals of
"make" available to guile could maybe be added later?

Also, some $(shell ) incompatibilities could be worked around.
