printf '$#/bin/sh\nexit1\n' ...

... as '\n' expansion is not portable (bash by default do not expand, 
dash does)

alternative:

$(dir)/have-compact: Makefile.config
ifeq ($(HAVE_XAPIAN_COMPACT),1)
     ln -s /bin/true $@
else
     ln -s /bin/false $@
endif


this is soo much faster ;)
     1) no shell needed in make
     2) no shell needs to be executed when running have-compact

otherwise LGTM.
