Rather than documenting a limitation here, why don't we do what people actually want. What do other build systems generally do when running configure from some other directory? Copy/link the Makefiles and then construct them carefully such that they can find all the source files? That doesn't sound like it would be that hard. -Carl -- carl.d.worth at intel.com -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
