Thank you, for all the work on this! > Okay to commit to HEAD? I see one smallish issue and a couple of nits: First, now whenever ChangeLog is touched, the configure recheck will be triggered. This isn't a biggie, and if we don't see a simple way around it, then it should just stay as it is. (I think this was the reason the stamp file was originally invented for anyway.) Second, can we remove the `$target is up to date' output for all thingies? Please also update NEWS to reflect this change. Thanks again, Ralf > Index: ChangeLog > from Gary V.
