It's sounding to me like the best thing to do is leave them alone,
but if you want...

there are many ways.

then it's probably ok. I think as I said before the the problem
shows up when somebody else does a teamware operation that walks
over the extracted files, so you could just try a bringover -n from
your built workspace as well. And in fact that's what I care about -
I don't want 'wx update' or a bringover to a built workspace to fail,
so if you really want to be sure that's the best thing to check.
I think it's mostly directories too not files, teamware gets upset
if it can't cd into a directory. I think.


>Also, how do I go about checking whether this line is really required:
>find . -name core -exec rm -f {} \;  

as I said, that line is to delete any expected core files that
happen when configure runs. So one way would be to see if there
are any core files in your build directory after configure runs :)

though I don't remember if there were any that _sometimes_ happened.
So I'd probably just leave that line, it's not like these finds are
adding much to build time.
