i realize this may be of limited interest to only those who are checking out
this paper, but i *swear* there's a significant typo in one of the makefiles
listed.
on p. 10, in the middle box, there is a static pattern rule for generating a
".d" dependency file from the corresponding ".c" file:
%.d : %.c
depend.sh $(CFLAGS) $* > $@
now, that "$*" just doesn't look right. the "depend.sh" script requires a
*source* file to generate that file's dependencies. the $* variable will give
you the *stem*, which makes no sense to compile.
i replaced $* with $<, and it seems to work. or am i just making a mess
of things?
