I would second that, I'm myself culprit of not realigning after the
removal/addition of a file to the build rules.

Since I spend quite a lot of time reading the code through git log in
form of patches (I know subversion users do not do it because svn is
very much less efficient for showing single changes), it would be
definitely better to have something like:

src_libmingwex = \
    crt/dllentry.c \
    crt/dllmain.c \
....

etc

With this change, patches would only show one single addition/deletion
per changed file, and be much more readable (Makefile.am would look
better as well IMHO)
