Ok, sorry for that, I must have been drunken, when writing the above...
What I really wanted to say, is:
B.o does not depend on A.hs or A.o, but on A.hi, so it has to be recompiled
only, iff the _interface file_ of A changes (if no relevant information to
the outside world changes, only A.o gets updated, if you recompile A; A.hi
still remains the same).

Bill Gropp: "Performance... and NT users expect a different behaviour...
Actually, they expect it to crash more often... :-) No, they just don't
want to './configure;make;make install'. They want to run InstallShield..."
