I'm using Cygwin make-3.79.1-5 on a largeish project. While we're
not using .d files we do have a lot of dependecies spread across
several makefiles that get included by other makefiles. I'm trying
to see if we're affected by this problem as startup takes longer than
I would have thought it should do, guessing from when I last used make
on a largish project a couple of years back. So I tried the MinGW
precompiled make but it's actually slower than the Cygwin one (and
works slightly differently - $(shell find -iname \*.wav) fails).
How much improvement have you noticed with the FSF one?
Can you tell me where to get a precompiled binary of it?
Thanks,
Mark.

Larry - thanks for those files. I think we have our issue sorted: when
we use the FSF win32 port of make 3.79.1, dependency checking works fine
- when we use the cygwin port of make 3.79.1, it doesn't.
For the moment we can get away with using the FSF port, but as soon as I
get time I'll try to track down where the cygwin problem originated.
Thanks again,
John
