Oh. DO rename those makefile variables. make them MINICT_HOST,
MINICT_PREFIX and so forth.

Somebody is going to want to insert your makefiles as-is under an
existing build system, and it is highly likely that unqualified variable
names are being used in that build system already. By giving them a
canonical prefix, you can help the users avoid errors that result from
Makefile variable export in recursive makes.
