There is no way this could have made running configure anything but faster (since it does less). However, it seems that a few extra stat() calls from make cause a bit of a slowdown on mingw. Quite frankly, I don't care, but someone suggested a workaround that is probably acceptable given the explanation which was missing from the patch. -- Måns Rullgård [email protected] _______________________________________________ libav-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.libav.org/mailman/listinfo/libav-devel
