I'd appreciate it if y'all would do the following sequence of commands on your favorite machine:
srcdir=/path/to/gcc/source/tree/ $srcdir/configure make all-libcpp configure-gcc cd gcc make config.h tm.h time ../libcpp/makedepend -I. -I$srcdir/gcc -I$srcdir/libcpp/include \ -I$srcdir/include \ -V$srcdir/gcc:$srcdir/libcpp/include:$srcdir/include \ $srcdir/gcc/*.c > depend and report (a) the numbers reported by the "time" command, (b) what sort of machine this is and how old, and (c) whether or not you would be willing to trade that much additional delay in an edit-compile-debug cycle for not having to write dependencies manually anymore. I do *not* want to see the "depend" file (but please don't use /dev/null, as this may give unrealistic numbers). For reference: I get real 0m14.108s user 0m5.240s sys 0m1.290s and I am currently leaning toward 'too slow'. Thanks, zw
