     The Build:suffixes rule specifies an NMAKE .SUFFIXES directive to
     be placed in the project makefile.
 
     Syntax
 
     Build:suffixes "[.<ext>]..."
 
     [.<ext>]...    List of file extensions (suffixes) to apply
                    inference rules for. Each extension must begin with
                    a period (.).
 
     When PWB writes the project makefile, it places the following
     lines after the 'all' pseudotarget in the project makefile:
 
          .SUFFIXES :
          .SUFFIXES : [.<ext>]...
          .SUFFIXES : [.<ext>]...
 
     The first directive turns off the default NMAKE suffixes list. The
     second directive contains the explicit list defined by this rule,
     which may be empty. The third directive is derived by PWB from the
     makefile. The resulting list used by NMAKE when searching for
     inference rules is the explicit list followed by PWB's derived
     list.
