I've had multiple header files magically disappearing on me until I traced it down to "make" being interrupted with ^C _just_ at the moment when it was handling a header file dependency. It's the ".hdepend" rules, and it decides that as the "touch" ended with an error it should just remove the "not correctly made" header file.
It can be irritating as hell, but I couldn't come up with any reasonable fix. Maybe somebody can come up with a better .hdepend strategy that won't have that confusion. I couldn't make "make" do what I wanted any way that didn't have this problem.
Anyway, the pre-4 thing looks ok, although I don't seem to find the network byte order problem which we fixed in 2.3.x and that caused ECONNRESET problems under load. Davem? Was that a bug that only existed in 2.3.x in the first place?
