        ;-> well - it's at least a slightly more readable picture than if you
include all the implied deps too. Having said that - IMHO we could
significantly improve the generated graphvis still.

        I'd like to collapse end-nodes that have identical dependencies into a
single large / verbose list node eg. the localedata cluster, or the
"epp, eps, ept, epg, eti ..." filter stuff around svx that bloats us
sideways un-necessarily.

        Similarly for the 'pure' UNO components at the bottom of which there
are quite a lot (encouragingly).

        Heh - lets debug it first - David has some good points I think; and of
course the mechanism used also elides all the external dependencies from
cluttering the place up [ they're prolly less interesting to new
developers I suspect ].

        Anyhow - IMHO it's only a reflection of the great gnumake work :-)

        All the best,

                Michael.
