The makefiles in rules/pre are evaluated before any other in rules/, and
contain all macro and variable definitions that should be available for
rule files.

The files in rules/post are evaluated last, so you can e.g.  override
makefiles and menu entries from upstream PTXdist in your BSP without
needing to forking the whole rule file.

All files are evaluated in lexical order, but other than that, the file
name is not important for functionality.

I don't think there's any more magic to it :)
