Subj: 	build is breaking scripts.
Scripts that have lines that start with a leading ": 	" (no-op command)

get broken because the build strips out these lines.

For example:

	:;;

gets stripped out.  This is causing problems with
the Steel lsm port.

Subj: 	Re: build is breaking scripts.

Can you be a little more specific? What scripts for example, and during what
phase of the build (ie where do you find them broken - obj or the installed
script).
