Hi Sam,

 In commit a680eedc6c621c75695c68198533fc3c98f4053b you introduced the
following code:

        exuberant()
        {
                all_sources > all
                all_sources | xargs ....{snip}...

This will generate a regular file named `all' in the repository, which
is not included in .gitignore.
Do we really need this file? I think the second run of all_source is
enough.  Or otherwise should
we add it into .gitignore?

I'm not subscribing linux-kbuild list so please CC me in replies, thanks.
