Use fixed variables for things that can't change, instead of variables
like SRCLIBDIR that was causing a shell call for every single use.
Use less functions in general and less shell expansions.
Use builtin functions like $(realpath blah) instead of $(shell
pwd)/blah In particular, this was important for me trying to build on
windows with git-shell. This should help a lot on smaller build
machines, but doesn't make a huge difference on my own.
Remove redundant clean print messages. These also cause more needless
shell expansions.
