But you could check all the time stamps of the parents. If all parent pmcs are older then the cached .c and .dump files, you could just serve from the pmc-cache. This is probably doable by Makefile-only rules too, but then a "make clean" still does the full recreation. And "make clean" is commonly needed due to insufficient dependencies, which is another issue. > JEff leo
