Please see output of make -d -C tools/xenstore init-xenstore-domain attached - it's quite long uncompressed

Right. Specifically (quoting a select few lines from
tools/xenstore/Makefile):

    LIBXENSTORE := libxenstore.so
    init-xenstore-domain: init-xenstore-domain.o $(LIBXENSTORE)
    libxenstore.so: libxenstore.so.$(MAJOR)
    libxenstore.so.$(MAJOR): libxenstore.so.$(MAJOR).$(MINOR)
    libxenstore.so.$(MAJOR).$(MINOR): xs.opic xs_lib.opic

So it would be a make bug if init-xenstore-domain were linked without
having created libxenstore.so first, but that (such an obvious bug in
make) doesn't seem very likely.

Peter, what does
    ls -l tools/xenstore/libxenstore*
show?

Also "make -d -C tools/xenstore init-xenstore-domain" might give a clue
as to why make thinks it doesn't need to rebuild those objects.

If $(LIBXENSTORE) were unset then that might explain things, but I can't
see how that could happen, it must always be either libxenstore.so or
libxenstore.a. Changing the init-xenstore-domain rule to:
    init-xenstore-domain: init-xenstore-domain.o $(LIBXENSTORE)
        @echo init-xenstore-domain using $(LIBXENSTORE)
        $(CC) $^ $(LDFLAGS) $(LDLIBS_libxenctrl) $(LDLIBS_libxenguest) $(LDLIBS_libxenstore) -o $@ $(APPEND_LDFLAGS)
would confirm or deny that theory (nb before @echo needs to be a hard
tab).

Ian.
