When building in a fresh directory we'll see some output like this:
/bin/sh ../../src/gdb/../mkinstalldirs arch/.deps
mkdir -p -- arch/.deps
/bin/sh ../../src/gdb/../mkinstalldirs cli/.deps
mkdir -p -- cli/.deps
/bin/sh ../../src/gdb/../mkinstalldirs dwarf2/.deps
mkdir -p -- dwarf2/.deps
... etc ...
this commit uses silent-rules.mk to silence this output, now we'll
see:
GEN arch/.deps
GEN cli/.deps
GEN dwarf2/.deps
... etc ...
The recipe that currently generates these directories uses
mkinstalldirs, as I mention in commit
032e5e0c0c08977, mkinstalldirs
is deprecated and 'install-sh -d' should be used instead. This
silences the 'mkdir -p -- ...' part of the output.
There should be no change in what is actually built after this commit.
