This change seems too aggressive to me. IIUC it will cause a full
rebuild for any re-run of configure, no matter now innocuous.
FWIW Automake implements a solution to the "deleted header file"
problem, just to deal with situations like this. In particular it
arranges to emit a dummy "whatever.h:" target for any referenced header.
This allows dependencies to work without breaking the build if the
header is changed. GCC's "-MP" option is used for this when available.
I hope that's relevant :), as I'm not 100% sure this was the problem
that lead to this particular patch.
If not, is there some other way to fix the problem, whatever it was?
thanks,
Tom
