... how? You mean manually?

If so, I'm afraid that's totally out of the
question, as I have 64 `provide's and 284
`require's!

The Makefile [1] don't compile anything on an
explicit file-to-file basis (except for
~/.emacs), everything else it is all shell
pattern matching with all files that are %.el,
should be %.elc as well.

No, I don't have circular dependencies, and
I don't think I can have them, either.
Actually I'm gonna try that right now...

No, I can't:

    In toplevel form:
    test-a.el:1:1:Error: Recursive ‘require’ for feature ‘test-b’

    In toplevel form:
    test-b.el:1:1:Error: Recursive ‘require’ for feature ‘test-a’
