That has to do with makefile dependencies.  When make goes and
reads your makefile, it checks to see if there are changes on the
dependent files only.  If the files are there, then it assumes no
changes, otherwise it builds.  What I do is add a "cleanup" which
removes the *.o files.  So I do something like:

	C_FLAGS = -01
	LINKER = -Xlinker -Ttext -Xlinker 80090000

	all: clean minefld.psx

	clean:
		del *.o

	minefld.psx: minefld.o
	  # yada yada yada

So, when the next build comes around, it checks the dependencies for
"all" and calls "clean" first which removes the old OBJs.  So when
it processes "minefld.psx", then it sees that it's dependent on an
".o" that isn't there so it compiles.

That usually does it.  There may be another way, but this works for
me...
