Re: [PATCH] makefiles: Optionally emit automake-style "silent" output.

[Jeff Smith]

FWIW, when I attempted a similar patch last September,
I got pushback from Alexandre due to him not considering
nested macro expansion as portable.
I also got pushback against enabling by default.

It seems that the conservative approach would be to
1. make the default for silent rules disabled, and
2. only output the WINE_V_ rules to the Makefile
   if silent rules are enabled.
