Hi Alfred,

> Doesn't the build offer a "noclean" option?

Heh. Of course it does ;-). It is even the default behaviour. The port never
cleans it files. It uses IMHO a very stupid build system. When it does make
something, it touches a file. If the file exists, this module is skipped.

And it seems that .obj files are created for the object files itself. If
the .obj Files exist, the object is not built again, even if the .o is missing.

I tried to add patches and to recompile after, but then I got several times
missing symbols during linking and other nice errors. No change to make clean
tests.

You can ask Obrien what he thinks about the build system ;-)

Martin
