As described in bug 15915, the pattern rule for lib%.so files in Makerules includes linkobj/libc.so as a dependency. However, the explicit rule for linkobj/libc.so is in the top-level Makefile. Thus, the subdirectory makefiles that include Makerules end up with an erroneous makefile pattern rule for linkobj/libc.so that includes itself as a dependency. The result is make warnings whenever rules for other .so files are resolved -- and, on occasion, actual makefile failures when a race condition causes the implicit rule to actually be used. This patch moves the explicit rules for linkobj/libc.so into Makerules to clear up this problem. It also elaborates a couple of comments that I'd initially found confusing. I've confirmed that this removes the circular-dependency warnings, and that the build still completes correctly. Ok for trunk? - Brooks
