Okay. I'm recompiling the first bisect now, there were no problems starting it
this time after using "git stash." However I didn't issue "make clean" because
it's unclear if it's necessary and I'm hoping I don't have to recompile
everything for each iteration. Is it necessary or not? The instructions are
vague and simple say you "might" have to. How would one know if they should?
Does the compile fail if you need to, or can silent problems be introduced if
you don't?
