Currently the make variable qapi-dir refers to the qapi-generated directory in
absolute terms.  This causes the harmless but ugly make output below.  By
changing this variable to the relative path the output conforms to the norm and
the build works fine.

Before patch:
  CC    /home/aglitke/src/qemu/qapi-generated/qga-qapi-types.o
  CC    /home/aglitke/src/qemu/qapi-generated/qga-qapi-visit.o
  CC    /home/aglitke/src/qemu/qapi-generated/qga-qmp-marshal.o
After patch:
  CC    qapi-generated/qga-qapi-types.o
  CC    qapi-generated/qga-qapi-visit.o
  CC    qapi-generated/qga-qmp-marshal.o

This was supposedly to fix a build issue that I was never able to reproduce.  I 
think Luiz could reproduce it though.  Luiz, could you try out Adam's patch and 
confirm it breaks for you?

I think that was Stefano:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2011-11/msg02752.html

Stefano had a patch that fixed a build breakage he saw with dirty 
directories by setting:

qapi-dir := $(SRC_DIR)/qapi-generated

That patch ended up breaking the build for others, however, and was 
reverted.

This patch was an improvement on the original, but we'd all agreed that 
it wasn't necessary since we don't support working around issues related 
to dirty directories.

So if it's ugly, we can safely drop it.

It doesn't :( I also tried to reproduce again with -rc4 (which was the
version I was getting it) but it doesn't happen anymore.

What kind of issue? I'm 100% certain that my tree was clean, the only
thing I did not do was to clone it again.

We have had races when building the qapi in the past, maybe that's the
problem and commit 9b12940 makes it less likely.

We could revert it and wait for the problem to happen again...

I am lacking some context here.  I am confused how a dirty directory could
change the output in this way.

I would be fine with doing whatever is least likely to cause anyone else
problems.  I wouldn't want to break the actual build just to make the output
look nice.

I guess I'm lacking context as well, I wasn't aware that Luiz had also 
hit an issue related to this patch, was just going off what I'd read in 
the thread where I posted this patch...

In Stefano's case, he'd noticed his build issue went away if

a) this (rather, Stefano's original) patch was applied, or
b) if he did a `make distclean` in his source directory beforehand

So that's why we assumed dirty directories were the problem.

I'm not sure of the circumstances behind the breakage Luiz saw, so I'd 
err on the side of caution and keep this patch until that's clarified.

Well, it happened a few days before the final release. While I was discussing
it with Anthony over IRC I was reading qemu-devel and I saw your patches. I
guessed they would fix the issue and they did, so Anthony decided to apply them.

I don't exactly remember if I did 'make distclean'. I probably did, but
what I did do was to remove my build dir and build again.
