I'm fully prepared to accept the blame for not doing the best job getting buy-in etc. on this effort. Can we leave the discussion on the process behind? I'd prefer that, unless there are real constructive comments on how to do better next time rather than rehashing what was done wrong. I think we have discussed that enough, and I'd prefer to avoid going further along that road.

I'm not so sure fstat() is that cheap. struct stat contains a lot of information. Although I guess since we are only ever talking about temp files, not NFS files or something, it's probably not too bad. _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
