(whenever SCCS updates the archive, it updates the mod time). This causes make to think that EVERY version of a file has been updated, not just the ones most recently added. When building files to an old delta level, this causes excessive compilations etc. Has anyone noticed/fixed this problem? I am thinking of doing it my making MAKE read the archive headers, but wanted to know if anyone else had a better idea. -JCP-
