Wait... The libtool's .la files are now the only files that show any difference, even when gcc is compiled into it's own prefix?

Are you proposing to patch libtool? If so, even if patching it for [gcc-]dcc only would be a great hack for now. Please go forward with that idea at least until libtool devs help us with a full solution. janneke -- Jan Nieuwenhuizen <jann...@gnu.org> | GNU LilyPond http://lilypond.org Freelance IT http://JoyofSource.com | Avatar® http://AvatarAcademy.com
