Unless you give library authors write access to your hard drive, it doesn't matter. They can't make your old, saved version magically disappear. If you then distribute that saved version with the rest of your app or library, it Just Works for the customer. I think I'm now at the point where I've spent more time posting to this thread than I've ever spent maintaining makefiles! If I have a different perspective on this from everyone else, there's really no point talking about it further. We might as well just go our separate ways.
