Compiling questions

I have 2 development questions: it seems that the header files in
/usr/share/rokudev/usr/include/ get 'touched' when compiling a program, for
example:

-r--r--r--    1 root     root        25054 May 22 12:05 wchar.h

As a result, every time I do a 'make' it rebuilds every source file even though
only one has changed.  I can fix this by changing the .depend to use 'gcc -MM'
instead of 'gcc -M', but it does seems strange.  Even more so, since
/usr/share/rokudev is mounted read-only so these files can't be changing.  Is
the cramfs filesystem somehow mixing up modify time with access time?

Also, I can't seem to escape spaces in a command line, so if I try to put a
filename like "Nova - Submarines.mpg" on the command line, I get 3 arguments,
"Nova", "-", and "Submarines.mpg".  I'm using the standard '\' or '"' to escape
the spaces.  Is the bash include on the roku somehow nonstandard here, and/or
is there some other way to escape the spaces?
