This was to allow combining in tree and out-of-tree builds as mentioned buy
Szabolcs. It's not something I really need, but if there are others who
need this functionality I'll do my best to support that scenario.

Right now the biggest headache for me is really the *.sub system. If that
gets replaced, it should be possible to avoid some the "hacks" I had to use
around the static rules.

sort here is not for sorting but for removing duplicates; in case you're
doing an in tree build, $(srcdir) will be . in which case each include path
will be listed twice, sort removes those duplicates.

I'm not sure how this worked before, I was getting build errors without the
explicit dep rule for .lo files.

This is bit of hack which uses the static rules. I think we might be able
to get rid of those if we remove the *.sub system as mentioned earlier, but
this is the only way I got it to work without having a per file rule in the
current setup.
