Seems the pattern rule involving _shipped was fooling make somehow.
I listed the dependencies explicit (reg_print.c_shipped -> reg_print.c)
explicit and it worked.
Did a little more makefile tricks while I was there.
aicasm is too overloaded, it would have been better to have separate
tools for some of this.

Please forward to Linus if you find it OK.
