Well, I tried to make it as pretty as possible.  The problem is that the
client and server code won't link together.  For each function, there's
the implementation and the stub, both with the same name.  To get both
into the same executable, I'd have to do some sort of renaming hack,
either with the preprocessor or something like sed.  The reason I like
two makefiles better is that messing with the output of widl weakens the
test.  I can take a second look at that approach, though, or look for an
entirely different way if you really hate having two makefiles/exes.
