Be careful on this. Certain vendors' compilers (maybe HPUX?) get confused
and report an error when you hand them a semantically empty compilation
unit. So, compiling empty source files is bad. Better to do something
which changes the set of objects that get built and included, so that we
never try to compile any "empty" files.
