Subject: [PATCH] 2.5.44 mrproper removes editor backup files
Date: Sun, 20 Oct 2002 20:01:54 +0200 (MET DST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200210201801.UAA22227@harpo.it.uu.se> (raw)

Contrary to years of history and several explicit comments in
Makefile that mrproper != distclean, 2.5.44 merged the two
which causes mrproper to incorrectly remove editor backup files.
Suggested fix below -- works for me.
