Removing the old build system

[Tim Watson]

Hi folks...

Been out of action a while now, and about to start dipping my toes back in and picking up some development work. I wonder if we still need the Makefiles and old make based build system? There were useful things it did (such as allowing you to build and use a local copy of a repository when you're working on two projects concurrently, e.g., changing distributed-process and d-p-extras at the same time and testing both locally) but I'm not sure if these are supported by the latest features of Stack and/or using cabal- directly?

Let me know your thoughts!

Cheers,

Tim
