The diverse things that 'make update' generates is supposed to be the same across platforms, so the intention is that they get generated on one platform (Linux / Unix) and that these changes get distributed to all others.

We have a number of patches that are applied, including a specific version of cmpossl. To ensure that all new error codes, objects etc. are available I run "make update" after config.

But with our patches applied the build fails once it gets to crypto/cmp because the include files cmperr.h and crmferr.h do not exist. On Linux these are created by make update.
