Actually I remember what the problem here is

Effectively I want the rule

	main.d: ant/main.m

but I don't know how to express that using the "%.d: %.m" notation,
hence my use of the "%.myd: %.m" and the mv to place the file in the
correct directory.

If anyone knows how to solve that problem, it would be most appreciated.
