Re: GNU make, gcc, and auto-dependencies

Hi Travis;

I haven't looked at your makefile but it seems like you have an implicit
rule defined somewhere that creates .p files.


If you use the advanced auto-dependency generation method it's critical
that make should NOT know how to build these dependency files; if there
is any rule that tells it how to do so things will not work properly.

You need to get rid of that rule for building .p files (or else use a
different suffix than ".p").
