Whenever I open gcc/Makefile in my usual editor, Visual C++ 5.0,
which is often, I get a warning about lines being
wrapped at 2048. I can't edit the file, without fixing this.
It is annoying.
This fixes it.
There are two parts and you can take either or both.
Either newline for each language, or newline for every few files, or both.
If there are any quotes, the second part gives up, since they could be quoting
spaces and lead to breaks at incorrect points.
I only tested this on Cygwin, but could test on a few others if required.
I know it's not a huge issue, but it would be nice to fix.
It sadly took quite a while to get to work. I tried with just one temp file,
and failed.
The diff is against the 4.3.1 release.
