brucee is probably right about the relative merits of the various
approaches for reasonably formulated mkfiles, but in this particular case,
>>if i change the first rule to:
>> %.b %.m %types.b %types.m: %.typeset mktypeset.dis
>>then i get:
>> mk: cycle in graph detected at target mktypeset.dis
it seems perfectly reasonable for mk to diagnose this. it is circular,
since it's declaring that (at least by default) ALL .b in this directory
depend on mktypeset.dis, which as shown includes mketypset.b,
which might cause me, let alone mk, to wonder which is chicken or egg.
if the declarations reflect the dependencies, it should work (subject to bugs).
