Comment (by Ionic):

 I haven't noticed that until now through the GH comment, we've figured it
 out since.

 Nope, you can't replace what the Makefile does with the muniversal PG. We
 actually do need the muniversal PG for what it does to not depend upon
 newer cctools versions and create a dependency loop. :)

 > The problem is the intention, I have not clue what its trying to do (a
 few comments might have helped)...

 Heh, the new Makefile stuff has a lot of comments that should explain what
 it does and why we want to skip some stuff (essentially for older systems
 such as Tiger). It's just a bit hidden within the function itself because
 there is no (other) way to add comments to multi-line code.
