Well, I was wrong. -D is not used anymore, however -T is still hidden. And there must be hidden args, since makepkg is a srcipt (I recognized this after my mail, since I've never read its "source"; then why do we work on alpm library, if only pacman uses it ?:-).
rewriting makepkg in C is not a good idea imho
I would agree. I'm sure we might be able to refactor a few small parts out, but in general, using bash is intentional, as PKGBUILDs are already in bash syntax. Basically we're getting the whole complex lexer/parser for free just by using bash.
