[Redbutton-devel] Redbutton-browser parallel makefile tweaks

[Andrew B. <b3...@gm...>]

Hello,
redbutton-browser compiles fine for me if I compile it with make -j1
but if I try 2 jobs or more it falls over itself so I asked for some help on
linuxquestions
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/programming-9/gnu-make-parallel-problem-846899/

The attached patch includes several fixes. Many of the object files
depend on ISO13522-MHEG-5.c, ISO13522-MHEG-5.h and clone.c but the
Makefile doesn't tell make that they do. This can be fixed with an
OBJS target like this: 

${OBJS}:	ISO13522-MHEG-5.h clone.c

make doesn't need to be called as a subprocess to compile xsd2c as long
as the Makefile knows that ISO13522-MHEG-5.h, ISO13522-MHEG-5.c and
dertest-mheg.c depend on xsd2c.
With the patch applied redbutton browser compiles fine for me with make
-j16. It still falls over itself if I try make -j64 so there is still
some work to be done, but I think this patch is a step in the right
direction.
