It was suggested to me regarding the .hgignore fix I am working on, that I do a full userland build to see if there are any other temporary files that ought to be included in the file. I started the build, but there apparently was some type of network error, and the build failed because a tarball was unavailable. That problem was transient and the tarball is now available.

Normally, when something goes wrong with a build within a component and the build fails, typing "gmake publish" uses the make dependencies and picks up where it left off. However doing this at the root of the directory seems to start the whole thing over again from scratch, so it is what we would call "a clobber build". I expected it to run gmake in all of the same component directories, but I also expected them to up-to-date and quickly move to the next. No such luck.

So, is there a target or flag that can be used to keep this from starting over from scratch?
