Too many options to the image, synchronization probs, etc.  But you
know you don't have to build from scratch each time.  Should be able
to cvs update && make, though this may not work if the configure
scripts or makefiles change, etc.  Here is the build hierarchy:

configure/make
o
unixport/saved_pre_gcl
lsp,cmpnew
unixport/saved_gcl
mod
unixport/saved_mod_gcl
pcl
unixport/saved_pcl_gcl
clcs
unixport/saved_ansi_gcl

If the cvs updates only selected files, say in cmpnew, then one can
simply (for example)

cd cmpnew
make
cd ../unixport
make saved_ansi_gcl

Take care,
