This is a *great* idea!

I can imagine to provide an extra make target which looks like this:

  info-data:
          echo SRC_DIR = $(SRC_DIR)
          echo OBJ_DIR = $(OBJ_DIR)
          ...

They are, I hope :-) In any case, someone who updates the makefile
would have to update the proposed `info-data' target also.

However, it seems that you have already a working, generic solution
using your make-odep.sh script, so please proceed as you like.
