But on the other hand, if an application programmer could
disable FPC's unit handling and use make -j instead, choosing
to pay the price of difficult maintenance, it might defuse the
criticism coming from certain quarters.
Make can not figure out the dependencies between units by itself
as it would need to parse them.
That's for the user to do, if he thinks he can do a better job than FPC.
Or implement an option that spits out the dependencies for make, so that
the user doesn't have to do this.
As this is something we (as in the FPC developers) don't need: patches
are welcome.
[or you could try whether the ppdep tool still works:
