Include file updates should be handled fine by the dependencies. Added include files however require to re-run `make depend', which is also a costly operation on a slow machine. Knowing whether include files have been added or not, requires you to closely track the committers list. More complicated updates or moves require manual intervention. I never ran a `make world' back when my machine was a 486/33. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
