[plt-scheme] mzmake

Sorry, Wayne. I guess this corner of the system is rotting away.

Looking back at the mzc manual, I see that 5.3 starts wrong on the
first sentence. Executable distribution generated by `mzc --exe' and
`mzc --exe-dir' can now accommodate mzc-produced extensions; you
shouldn't have to mess with compilers, linkers, and makefiles directly
(and that's why it stopped working somewhere along the line).

Have you tried using `mzc --exe' plus `mzc --exe-dir'?
