Built-In rules

File name extensions (suffixes) and their associated rules in the makefile override any identical file name extensions in the built-in rules.

clearmake reads built-in rules from the file versionvault-home-dir/etc/builtin.mk when you run in the standard compatibility mode. In other compatibility modes, other files are read.
