I work a *lot* from the the command line, and I depend quite a bit on completion. Problem is, all those xxx.dll.so links in dlls/ are screwing with it sometimes, as is the case for avifile.dll.so, etc. Even when the dir name is a proper prefix of the link, it's still annoying as I don't get the / completed automatically, then I hesitate whether to add it or not, and so on.
The standard way to cope with that is to build outside of the source tree. Then you get all the object files out of the way, not only the dlls.
