But the script could run whenever the Makefile is updated, even under
Unix. Of course, there are chances of bitrotting, but it cannot be
worse than having failures every time a builtin is added or otherwise a
file is added.
The main problem I see with the script is that the output would
naturally be a .gitignore-d file, but it will not be for the reason you
mention.

Yes, it's not very far from what I had in mind.
