So what's the problem exactly? https://mmottl.github.io/ocaml-makefile/

Oh look, it even builds a project faster than Dune: https://discuss.ocaml.org/t/dune-build-vs-makefile/11394

They all have the samé problem: that you don't know the name (or even the number) of modules (module files) being generated without reading the source. And as a bonus, that every compiler uses a sligthly different naming scheme for the generated mofule file (this is of course no problém for OCaml ;).
