Gerald> Any ideas how I could nail this down? Anyone else seeing this? First, yeah, this is known. And, kudos to HJ for trying to fix this in 'make'. I've been considering working around this problem by just redoing the whole .java->.class step whenever any .java file changes. That would probably be slower for libgcj developers but at least wouldn't hugely hurt folks working elsewhere. Also, most class library development happens in Classpath these days anyway. Any comments on this? Tom
