Ok. Does it help if there's an option to make that supresses the
automatic loading on .depend or more generically, allows one to
name the depend file and it merely defaults to .depend (suppression
is then accomplished by specifying /dev/null as the depend file)?
If such option would be used for "make depend", would that resolve
the problems in a generic way?
