It seems the problem was only that the makefile was neglecting to add
the --srcdir argument. It was kind of annoying that it didn't show any
warning or anything; I spent quite some time trying to figure out what
was going wrong. I think I'll add a check that if it detects less than,
say, 5 files, throw an error message and quit.
Other than that, if I don't see objections, I'll commit it later today.
