You end up with it rebuilding the arch/arm/lib one, followed by a rebuild of the arch/arm/boot/compressed one. We've ended up with what we have because its about the only way to get kbuild to behave. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kbuild" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
