I like the use of two separate commands in rules. Could you install this patch without removing the space after -MF and -MT? Doing so will break tools like distcc that parses these flags and assume the space (the GCC manual always use it). Here removing the spaces would cause distcc to force a local compilation (because -MFxxx and -MTxxx are not among its list of options that generate dependency as a side-effect, although -MF and -MT certainly are). I guess other tools might be hurt, and it sounds a bit harsh to do that just for two spaces. After all if we did the same thing with -o many more tools would be lost too, including some we distribute. -- Alexandre Duret-Lutz
