Not really. grub-emu is a debugging tool, so, strictly speaking, it would b= e=20 better to compile grub-emu with the build type... > We don't have "make-tools" in c-code nor asm.

GRUB does not= =20 have such a program any longer, as I have rewritten genmoddep with awk. IMO= ,=20 it is not required in most cases to write this kind of programs in C these= =20 days, because scripting languages are good enough to assist build processes. Okuji
