the makeactionfiler needs to be able to handle any extension that can be 
handled by make. perhaps that's why it wasn't done before. IIRC, the list 
includes at least:
 - java files
 - fortran files
 - C# files
 - C/C++ files

So if the regexp can be modified to handle those, it's good. Of course, all of 
this is moot if the makeactionfilter is only used for c and c++ compilation
