* configure.in (BUILD_CC): Use AC_CHECK_PROGS, not AC_CHECK_PROG,
since we are checking multiple names.
* configure.in (kdb): New --enable option.
* Makefile.in (DEFINES): Add @DEFS@.
* Makefile.in (clean, distclean, mostlyclean, maintainter-clean):
New targets.
(all-archs-configures): New variable.
(MIG): Change to ./local-mig.
(./local-mig): Change to build this instead of ./mig
(check-clib-routines): Use nm -g in case there are local symbols.
Suggested by Matthew Wilcox (willy@odie.barnet.ac.uk).

This is only useful if you actually anticipate +debugging the kernel, of course. We don't turn it on be default +because it adds considerably to the unpageable memory footprint of the +kernel. + The specific switches you give to configure are always recorded in the file `config.status'. So you can always tell what options you used to build a particular kernel. |
