Mostly compiler variations. Automake's `depcomp' script knows different ways to invoke compilers, so they output dependency information. The script itself does some reformatting, but not what you are hinting at. So, the changes you observe might be due to differenc compilers or compiler versions. > I like the second version, cause it allows me to rename my > sandbox directory without having to rebuild everything.

Furthermore, note that quite a bit of the autotools silently assumes that you do not move the build tree nor the source tree around, so you might encounter more problems like this.
