   The return value of FUNC must be either NULL, in which case it expands to
   the empty string, or a pointer to the result of the expansion in a string
   created by gmk_alloc().  GNU make will free the memory when it's done.

   MIN_ARGS is the minimum number of arguments the function requires.
   MAX_ARGS is the maximum number of arguments (or 0 if there's no maximum).
   MIN_ARGS and MAX_ARGS must be >= 0 and <= 255.

   If EXPAND_ARGS is 0, the arguments to the function will not be expanded
   before FUNC is called.  If EXPAND_ARGS is non-0, they will be expanded.
