  It would cool if the RabbitMQ Makefile used $(MAKE) instead of just executing "make".  Some systems have multiple make versions, with different names.  So "make" may not be GNU make.  Using $(MAKE) solves this problem.

  But so far Stomp support looks ok.  Is the plan to include the protocol into the RabbitMQ tree later, or will be it always be an extra download?
