There are two reasons for this. 1. .S is the accepted standard [at least in the GCC community] for ASM files that need pre-processing. 2. If one has "-save-temps" in CFLAGS and edits a .s file, ``make'' will not build a new object. ``make'' uses the datestamp of the .s file saved to disk due to the "-save-temps" option to `cc' since ``make'' is hardwired to check OBJDIR before any .PATH:'s. Thus ``make'' incorrectly decides everything is up to date and nothing needs to be rebuilt. -- -- David (obrien@NUXI.com) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
