I think I fixed all those in the projects/bmake branch, but it is easy to introduce new issues. Anytime a makefile changes its behavior based on the existance of something it risks churning the dependencies b/w clean/update build. This same tech has been used by 1000+ engineers daily for a number of years now, it has made it much harder for them to break the build. > then I guess having them checked in is ok.

When we've added targets to build system packages etc, then that should be simple. I still need to catch up with what bapt has been doing on that front though.
