gnu Make doesn't seem to handle the $? meta-sequence properly.
One section of my make look like:

	rm $?

I get:

	rm

	(rm is called with no arguments), rm complains.  Then,

	rm file1.o file2.o, etc.

	(the line was re-executed, this time with some files).

----  On another note:

currently, cc is called once for every source file, instead of all
sources needing recompilation being compiled at once (like the Makefile
called for).  Is there anyway to get it to only invoke a compile
once for all files?  Sure would be a lot quicker.
