+ The second expansion feature causes significant slowdown. Timing
+ a complex makefile (GCC 4.1) shows a slowdown from .25s to just
+ read the makefile before the feature, to 11+s to do the same
+ operations after the feature. Additionally, memory usage
+ increased drastically. To fix this I added some intelligence that
+ avoids the overhead of the second expansion unless it's required.
+
+ * dep.h: Add a new boolean field, need_2nd_expansion.
+
+ * read.c (eval): When creating the struct dep for the target,
+ check if the name contains a "$"; if so set need_2nd_expansion to 1.
+ (record_files): If there's a "%" in a static pattern rule, it gets
+ converted to "$*" so set need_2nd_expansion to 1.
+
+ * file.c (expand_deps): Rework to be more efficient. Only perform
+ initialize_file_variables(), set_file_variables(), and
+ variable_expand_for_file() if the need_2nd_expansion is set.
+
+ * implicit.c (pattern_search): Default need_2nd_expansion to 0.
+ (pattern_search): Ditto.
+ * main.c (handle_non_switch_argument): Ditto.
+ (main): Ditto.
+ * read.c (read_all_makefiles): Ditto.
+ (eval_makefile): Ditto.

* main.c (main) [WINDOWS32]: Export PATH to sub-shells, not Path.
