AH, you are working with an old version of the makefile.mingw, I  
think.  Check the file in the pd-extended.git for the most recent  
version.

Wildcards in build systems are generally not a good idea.  When  
building software, including a file that is not meant to be included  
is an error.  Same goes for not including a file that is meant to be  
included.  By specifying the files individually, the build system can  
check both of those errors.  Using wildcards it will not.

There is pd/configure.ac which does the detection and setting of  
variables like LINUX, ASIO, etc.  There is pd/Makefile.am for the main  
Makefile.  Then each folder has its own Makefile.am for building that  
folder (i.e. asio, pd, portaudio, po, etc).

Ignore all Makefile and Makefile.in files.  Those are generated from  
Makefile.am.
