First of all, I have not seen any differences in the way make works between
releases.  I have used make and sccs on 3.1.1 3.1.2 3.1.3 3.1.5, and many
pre-release levels.  So I don't think your level of the OS is a problem, 
anyone else know about any make/sccs bugs in different levels of AIX?

Second, I haven't played with make/sccs on the RS6000's in over two months, 
so my memory is a little rusty, BUT what I was saying is that make DOES
pull files out of sccs.  I don't remember if the s. files were in the same
directory, or in some other directory.  Sorry.

If you want me to look it up, I'll be playing with that in a few weeks, so
email me, and I'll make a special effort.

Sorry, I can't be more specific, but I don't want to mis-lead anyone.
