It is, as long as no source file has changed. Actually, I've got very
fond of this feature; it helps on many of the platforms to which I've
got access. I'd rather not see it dropped.
When I'm hunting I bug, I don't bootstrap all the time; I often just
`make' and check that the fix appears to work before going for a full
bootstrap. If I had already bootstrapped that tree, I notice that
bootstrap completes immediately and remember to remove the stamp
files.
I'm sorry, but I don't follow the scenario you are talking about.
Can you be very precise?
