That's exactly what I get (and have gotten for many successful builds) on Alpha and it never seems to cause MMK trouble. There is a rule for .xs.c, so the specific action shouldn't be necessary. You might try adding a blank line above the line you quote since it seems jammed up against another dependency. You might also try to make it explicitly: $ set default [.ext.Encode] $ mmk encode.c Reading the release notes to MMK, I see that before 3.9 it did no "recursing through dependencies and implicit rules when doing suffix-based matching," which sounds a lot like what it must do to process the .xs.c rule. So, other than double check your new MMK 3.9-x installation and make sure that is the one you are invoking, I'm afraid I'm out of ideas. -- ________________________________________ Craig A.
