What do you mean by "nested" make loops?

Anyway, it takes a while until make has evaluated all dependencies and
starts its actual work.  But that is only a question of minutes, not of
hours.

Furthermore PL-49 never had automatic dependency creation and you had to
do a full recompile for every lib you built.  New MiNTLib versions will
keep old object files and only recompile if necessary.

Ciao
