Re: per target built sources patch v3

[Akim Demaille]

Hi Alex,

| I could split it into four or five patches (that would be
| incrementally applied) e.g:
| 
| 1) gcc style cpp depcomp
| 2) patsubst style variable substitution
| 3) suffix supplied dependencies
| 4) improved suffix rule recognition
| 5) per target built source hooks.
| 
| I would be willing to add tests for new features (so long as this
| didn't result in the patch being rejected for being big <g>)

Do you still consider doing this?

| If I was to do this, would someone with CVS access consider applying
| them in a timely manner? I suspect I might go mad trying to maintain
| five source trees for any length of time.

I would.  Well, we the approval of some other people, of course, but
we'd do that quickly.  In addition Automake is not changing fast
enough to become a problem :)
