Hmm... I thought the whole point of having explicit configure targets was to be able to run them in parallel. Of course we'll still be able to configure a sub-package while another builds, but that's not quite as good. We should definitely have a configure (or host-configure) target that gets all packages to configure sequentially, such that those who want to do parallel builds can still do them without having to do parallel configures (i.e., run `make host-configure && make -j4 all/bootstrap´) -- Alexandre Oliva Enjoy Guarana', see http://www.ic.unicamp.br/~oliva/ Red Hat GCC Developer aoliva@{redhat.com, gcc.gnu.org} CS PhD student at IC-Unicamp oliva@{lsd.ic.unicamp.br, gnu.org} Free Software Evangelist Professional serial bug killer
