Re: mh-e/mh-acros.el advices `require' incorrectly

[Richard M. Stallman]

    What do people think about my updating lisp/Makefile.in to remove
    lisp/mh-e/*.elc if and only if lisp/mh-e/*.el changes?

That won't help with M-x byte-recompile.  The right solution is to
make the graph of requires acyclic, and put the macro file at the
start of the alphabet.  Given the way the software in fact works,
that should be totally reliable.
