So which C compilers other than gcc have a -MM option which "does the
right thing?"

Find the autoconf test that is used by a hundred other packages (somewhere)
and use it to define CC_DEPEND (or some such) and then put that in the
Makefile.

I'd believe in this theory that mkdep.sh could somehow be smarter than
gcc -MM if it were not the case that it doesn't work, has never worked
since it was committed, and doesn't even do what we want (i.e., place
the dependencies in the Makefile as part of its generation).  A far
superior solution would be to simply put the fixed dependencies in CVS
without any of the OS-specific dependencies and generate only those
ones as part of configure.

Prolly none. :)
However, this needs to be fixed anyway, so ...
I'll see what I can find.
