Devrim, all I can think of: does the $(wildcard *.pl) $(wildcard *.pm) really 
expand to include slon-tools.pm ? It just strikes me that it is the only .pm 
file, and the only @@ symbols it contains are for PGBINDIR, so they're the 
only example of what's not being expanded.

Is it possible throw a bogus line like:
# make this perl -> @@PERL@@ 
or some such in to test if that gets expanded? Or reverse the wildcard order?

I'm not set up to build slony from CVS yet... working on it now.

Regards, Philip.
