I'm fine with "$(missing)" or whatever else that provides a clear message.
Oops, not "#error", but "$(error ...)", I was mixing cpp & make above...
However the example in the doc Makefile for "collageindex.pl" is on the
heavy side, as it suggests that every use of such commands should be put
in ifdef/else/endif. ISTM that a dependence-based solution would be
simpler.
