clever makelist to preserve filenames

        The clever version of makelist in ~/commis/coda/crl to preserve the
original descriptive source filename (e.g. commis_r_pri_nots) in the
resulting .o, while having it internally consistent with the standard
filename (e.g. commis_r_pri), has a bug in it.

        It actually precompiles the STANDARD crl (e.g. commis_r_pri) and then
puts the result in the descriptive filename (e.g. commis_r_pri_nots.o).

        I found this by looking in the ~/commis/coda/src directory at the
intermediate .c filename, which does NOT have the changes I made in
commis_r_pri_nots.

        Until I can figure out enough about Linux to get makelist right, or
Tancredi logs in from Slovenia, we are stuck with the standard files. I
can also cheat things to change the readout list in a backdoor way.
