Not sure, if this is only copying the names that conflict or other too, however an error in the Makefile.am files is making libmc to be linked three times so a large number of files are required to be copied anyway, and this adds 5-10 seconds to the build process (the ''copying object files to avoid basename conflicts…'' stage), which is a serious inconvenience |

Then the error in Makefile.am files could be tracked down. |
