Nowhere in sight--and I can't see that it attempted, either.

I feel terribly clumsy at this stuff.  I thought it was going to
be easier just to scan setup.py, and say, "ah, yes, right there;
it'll compile X right after Y and just before Z, and ..."  That
you, too, are other-than-entirely-certain about how errors are
handled--well, I don't know if that's a good thing, or bad.

So is there no one who's expert with the Makefile?  Shall I dig
in myself and see what it'll need to work correctly and compre-
hensibly?
