Makefiles: Be less verbose when performing make rules by only printing the command being executed and the source and/or target file.

I've been thinking about this some more, and I don't think I'll put it
in. It's going to cause a lot of trouble and portability headaches,
for only a minor cosmetic gain.

This thing really belongs in make itself; it shouldn't be hard to
patch GNU make to have a mode where it only displays the command name
and target instead of the whole command line. Then it would work for
all projects, and wouldn't require adding complexity to the makefiles.
