   The "extension-based" format is the intended appearance---".swi" is supposed 
to be just like ".c" or ".h". The way this is done in a Norcroft makefile is by 
adding it to the .SUFFIXES dependency:

      .SUFFIXES: .o .h .h++ .swi .ch .Hdr .ah .Help .s

in each OSLib makefile.

   Dunno why it doesn't work for you tho'---maybe that line is missing 
somewhere?
