[uClibc]Re: build-time link removal in include

[Miles Bader]

Hi Erik, do you have any comment on my earlier query?  Basically,
blindly removing symlinks from `include' in the top-level Makefile
(target `headers') messes up the way I do building, because I use
symlinked build trees.

I'm currently using this patched Makefile, with no noticable problems:

Is there a reason why the more aggressive approach with `find' is
needed?

Thanks,
