Ah, impressive!  Though to be really useful, it would have to tell you 
how many objects are required to be built this particular time.  For 
example, you touch a header file and 100 .o files need to be rebuilt, it 
would show as "[X / 100]".  Then you would know if you have time to get 
coffee or not.

I pushed my two patches.

Thanks,

Simon
