Well written code almost never has problems with smp flags. Well, not "well written", but "trivial". Once you start messing with non-conventional, non-linear builds (just think tex) you start leaving the safe harbour, and you can reverse the above: "complex Makefiles almost never wokr wit hsmpt flags". So, keeping smp_flags will create pain and detcet such issues, that can be considered a good thing. Only I don't think the pain is worth it. I for one will not start hunting down java Makefile issues which only exhibit on parallel builds. Make smpt_flags and opt-in instead of opt-out. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
