Jeff, the reason I wasn't sure in this case, and just asked the question
as 3d, is that on UFS
this trouble happens typically only with a ('random') couple of
Makefiles among the hundreds that are
generated _ hence in quite unlikely to occur at the very first one. And
in addition, he had the
same problem before, in the first Makefile generated in libxpm _ where I
never heard of any problem.
