In the end, the actual work is done by scripts/versions.awk. It takes
some parameters but hopefully you will be able to trace that back now
through the (extremely wicked) Makerules file now that you know the
script name to look for. The script itself is sorting out Versions.def
and the Versions files it finds in various subdirectories.
