I guess we need to decide whether we want a general solution for created source
files, or a specific for this particular problem (maybe plus the blderrSymTbl
output as well).
For a general solution I suggest we should use O.something (O.src?) rather than
S.build as the O.* directories are already singled out for things like make clean,
which would allows us to remove the additional clean:: targets. I've just looked
though base and run diff on all the common .c files which exist in the object
directories and there are no differences between solaris and mv167 targets in any
of the sources generated. We currently have duplicate generated .c files in as,
dbtools and libCom.
If we only worry about this particular instance, you could just run bldEnvData
within your tar script -- it creates the envData.c file in the working directory.
This should be run by the make Win32 or make VMS targets when collecting all
the relevant source together, rather than just taking a copy of envData.c from
O.sun4 [or O.$(HOST_ARCH) to be safer].
I propose that for the 3.12.2 release you use the latter approach, but the general
solution should be considered for future releases.
