Btw, I suspect I was wrong on the use of basename.

Yeah, you can do it carefully with that $(patsubst %.mod,%,..) thing, but
boy is that ugly and hard to read. Since the whole point was to hopefully
be safer, being "ugly and hard to read" is not exactly good, and I suspect
the original $(basename ..) was simply better.
