Perhaps we could take the same approach as CVS and have one top-level command
called `mercury' which just invokes whichever command is specified by its
first argument. ie:
	mdb     = mercury debug
	mgnuc   = mercury c_compile
	ml      = mercury link
	mprof   = mercury profile
	mmc     = mercury compile

Just a thought...
