RE: make 3.82 performing more stat() calls than 3.81

FYI,

I believe I've located the fix in the GNU make CVS repository that resolves the 
excessive stat() call problem.  I've back-ported the fix into 3.82 and it 
appears to be working in our build system.  The patch for 'read.c' is attached 
if anybody is interested.  Thanks.

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the quick response.  Is there a patch I could look at for this 
change?  We might be interested in back-porting the fix into 3.82 for now.  
Thanks.

Hi Troy.  I've verified that this issue exists in 3.82 but it's already been 
fixed in CVS and the fix will be available in the next release of GNU make.

Thanks!
