Makefile.inc: Ensure update of build.h
There were so many pitfalls that I wrote my own version of this even-
tually. This version is inspired by the procedure of Alex Thiessen[1].
Instead of generating a `build.h` on demand, we always generate a tem-
porary version that, if it differs from the current one, is added as
a dependency.
As we use .SECONDEXPANSION on the prerequisites, special care is taken
that we won't generate the file twice. As it would be too late to add
the dependency if we'd run `genbuild_h.sh` inside a recipe, we have
to run it through the `$(shell)` function. But that brings us to the
next issue: The make variables used by `genbuild_h.sh` are not expor-
ted to this shell like they would be in a recipe. So we export them
manually. We could also make these variables explicit parameters of
`genbuild_h.sh` instead.
An alternative to always creating the temporary `build.h` would be
to add a phony target as dependency instead, and finally calling
`genbuild_h.sh` again in case we need an update. But, um, we create
so many files anyway...
