RE: GMAKE speed ups.

Thanks for the clarification.

It would be nice to be able to turn off all built-in rules from within a
makefile - is that a reasonable enhancement request or would that break
compatibility with other makes?

Sorry, I sent that too soon.

What I meant to say was:

  The other pattern rules, like "%.out: %", etc. don't take much time
  because make compares the target name (foo.c) and immediately sees
  that "%.out" cannot match.
