In project with about 550 normal source files, 80 headers, 200 test
files, about 1200 generated files spread over 12 directories I use
explicit file lists.  Lists of files increase volume of Makefile-s,
but in my experience extra work to maintain file list is very small.
Compared to effort needed to create a file, adding entry to file list
is negligible.

Explicit lists are useful if groups of files should get somewhat
different treatment (I have less need for this now, but it was
important in the past).

IMO being explicit helps with readablity and make code more
amenable to audit.
