Subject: cython extension thinks it's up to date

Hiya,

I have a project which is set up with one or two cython files and then
a whole set of C and C++ files. When I try to rebuild after changing
the cython, everything goes as expected. But when I change the C or
C++ only, cython decides that everything is already up to date.

In setup.py I pass in all the relevant source file names in the
Extension's sources list, so why doesn't the cython compiler detect
that the files have changed and rebuild? One solution is to delete the
build folder and try again, but this rebuilds all modules rather than
just the one I've changed, which is much slower.

Is this a bug in cython, or am I doing something wrong?

Joe
