Doesn't everyone have the same problem that I have: that after re-building plib and/or 
SimGear, even after a one-file change, the "make install" copies all of the header 
files to the install directory, putting the current date stamp on them, even though 
they have not changed.  This causes almost every file in FlightGear to be re-compiled.

I searched the net and found a reference (just one, in a pair of e-mails from 1998) to 
someone's macro called INSTALL_CHANGED that intended to solve this problem, but with a 
note "Remember, INSTALL_CHANGE will die when automake comes."

I'm tempted to write a wrapper around my copy of "install" but, although the 
fundamental operation is trivial, the wrapper would have to handle the command-line 
syntax of "install".  Therefore I wish I could find such a thing already written, or 
another way to achieve it.

Maybe it's only my system that does this ...
