Say, foo.o depends on foo.c and foo.h -- but foo.h also depends on
generated_foo.h, which should be generated by make.
in such case, explicitly state (no recipe is necessary):
foo.h: generated_foo.h
so mk knows the `generated_foo.h' must be completed first.

-s won't help you there, because it regards processing of /command line/
arguments, not of prerequisites. consider:
$ NPROC=1 mk my_target
also investigate -d[egp] debug stuff.
have fun with mk, it's a great little tool :-)
