Some additional information regarding the mapping of ./file.c to file.c.

$ diff ~/gnu/make/hpux-3.58/read.c ~/gnu/make/hpux-3.62/read.c
1237,1240d1278
<       /* Remove leading `./' sequences.  */
<       while (p - q > 2 && q[0] == '.' && q[1] == '/')
<       q += 2;
< 

Is there a good reason that these lines have been removed from v3.62 ?
