According to the gmake manual, the automatic variable $? gives you "The names of all 
the prerequisites that are newer than the target, with spaces between them."
That only works on one level of hierarchy.  What if I wanted the names of all 
prerequisites of the prerequisites of the prerequisites, etc etc.
A : B
B : C
C : D
For example: all targets need to be remade and I want all the prerequisites of target 
A which should be B, C, and D.  Whereas $? works on one level and would return B as 
the only prerequisite of target A.
Thank you in advancd for any help,


Jonathan Peart
