I should interject that I've already added code to Makefile.inc1 in 7, 8 and 9 so yacc is a bootstrap tool when building on a system that has byacc, so right now Baptiste's proposed change won't make much difference, but we should definitely give some thought to what we consider a bootstrap tool and when we should build them. Blindly removing all conditionals is *not* an option, though, as some of the bootstrap tools take ages to build. Remember that all bootstrap tools and build tools are built twice, once during the bootstrap / toolchain phase and once during the everything phase. DES --=20 Dag-Erling Sm=C3=B8rgrav - des@des.no
