Well, the problem I have had, was that after modifying code in
"libinetutils/" and then rebuilding "libinetutils.a", the change
was not included in the relevant binary executable, simply because
the executable did not explicitely use "libinetutils.a" as a build
prerequisite. Therefore a "make" could not initiate a renewed linking.

I seem to remember that I was plagued by this a month or two ago,
as I was hard into tftp/tftpd and telnetd.

Am I making the matter any clearer?
