Ah. OK, I see.
Note that my remarks were for 2.1.1, not 2.0.2 or 2.0.3
In 2.1.1/2.0.3 the used variables for unit output path and exe output path
are totally different:
OutputUnitDir only set by -FU
OutputExeDir set by -FE and -o
OutputFile only set by -o
I don't see any other code (Checked today's code)
I diffed 2.1.1 with todays 2.0.3 and the code handling these options is exactly
the same.
Peter, Florian, any suggestions ?
Michael.
