The delete-old target only removes static libs. Yes, they are libs, =20
but they are not used in a life system, they are only used while =20
developing. That's the reason why I didn't add "libraries" to the =20
description of the delete-old target. The delete-old-libs target =20
exists to remove shared libs, which you should not do unconditionally =20
on a system (make sure no ports uses them anymore).

For the check-old target there's no reason to split up the targets, as =20
you can list them unconditionally. For developing convenience I did =20
chose to have the check-old-XXX targets in Makefile.inc1 ("make -f =20
Makefile.inc1 TARGET" works just fine). I see no need to expose all =20
targets.

So please revert this or do a forced commit to provide a good reason =20
why they need to be exposed.

As your recent commits to the delete-old/check-old part created a lot =20
of mails and follow up commits because of them, I suggest to discuss =20
further changes to the targets before committing the changes.

Bye,
Alexander.
