Except that, like Mark implies, I tend to keep my notes in my working directory. If I'm debugging a bunch of testcases and I needed to keep notes about what was going on, I'd be quite surprised if make clean deleted my notes! I don't object too strongly, though, if others like this approach. I wouldn't put them in that directory anyway, just in gdb/testsuite/. -- Daniel Jacobowitz CodeSourcery
