Re: strange things in the build

[Sam Roberts]

I take it back, after I rm -rf *.o *.lo .libs in libs/,
add a few hundred lines of white space to the beginning of
argcv.c, rm sieve/sieve (to force a rebuild), rebuild
sieve, and run gdb, I'm stepping through line after line
of whitespace.

I don't get it.

I'm going to try add ../libs/argcv.o to sieve/Makefile.
