I disagree. I prefer copies for the following reasons:
a) Disk space is not an issue for me. b) The copies can be used for any purpose, not just compiling. In particular, clicking through forwarding headers in the IDE is annoying. c) The behavior is more consistent. Using copies, the preprocessor output should be identical to the preprocessor output to the preprocessor output using links.
I can see others preferring forwarding headers, but "always" is too strong.
Copies are not necessarily in sync with the original. Every time you modify the original, you need to regenerate the copies. That's not a very practical development environment.
Why? It's handled automatically. (Okay, the patch I posted doesn't handle this properly, but I've fixed it in my local version) In Christ, Steven Watanabe
