[ see http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2003-06/msg00130.html or References: for the whole message ] Leads me to a particular and a general question about automake/depcomp and KAI: Is there really nobody interested in this compiler (any more) that uses automake or does it have to do with the fact that KAI is primarily intended for C++? In general, is there interest in supporting older or less used systems even if it means more code for every package that uses automake? Is there a FAQ for this I did not find or discussion I overlooked in the archives? Does it have to do with the non-freeness of the compiler (wouldn't be the only one)? Regards, Ralf
