well, it appears that the problem is unique to my old XP machine, so I apologize for the noise. This morning I tried to reproduce the duplicate compile problem on Windows 10 using the latest trunk produced the normal way using git clone and git pull, and it behaved as it should, no duplicate compile. on Windows XP using 0.92.x branch there was a definite duplication of compile effort, but there were a lot of unique things about that: first of all 'XP', secondly devlibs 32, thirdly the source code came from a zip file downloaded from https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/tree/0.92.x, it did not come from a git clone command (the XP machine is off-line). In any event the strange behavior was unique to only that machine and only that branch so I will not lose any sleep over it.
thanks for your hard work in this area, Alvin
