Description
It's about time we stop supporting legacy builds and make generic.
However, this does not mean we'll actually delete Makefile.legacy because I'm merging core Makefile changes into that file, to have them "documented". We'll just drop any mentions of it (or mention it but state that it is neither supported nor tested). I'd also like to drop all ugly #ifndef BENCH_BUILD (and even worse the awful #else clause starting at bench.c:61) and such stuff from the sources.
