build I20040227

It's nice that manual builds are now background jobs.  I generally run with 
autobuild turned off, and use Ctrl+B a lot.  I find that when I hit it now, I 
don't get any feedback that my action has taken effect.  Particularly if it's 
already up-to-date.

I imagine that background builds are not going to be the only background 
operation triggered by the user that will have this problem.
There should be a common way of indicating that the user's request has been 
honoured but that there is no work to do.

Even a short cursor change would suffice.  E.g. as in saving a short plain text 
file.
