That's my problem! I get up to module C, which has a runtime or compile
error, which is fixed by the new version of module A. I compile A, but now B
is linked against the old A, so I need B, and C works, but D needs a new
B, which breaks my C... and so on..

BTW, I'm not complaining to anyone here. I know gnome is in development..
This is just venting some of my frustration.
