Ian,

I suggested a solution without having any script at all instead working 
with something like ivt.h containing macros for all common code and 
ivt_svhpt.S and ivt_lvhpt.S in parallel for specific code. It just might 
be more readable than your approach and both ways would be treated equal 
by the make process. Technically they are the same.

Christian
