Brad,
Thanks for the reply. After hunting around some more, I discovered the
source file properties OBJECT_DEPENDS and OBJECT_OUTPUTS. I have yet to
experiment with these, but I am wondering if CMake's automatic dependency
resolution will populate these properties. If so I could get dependency
information from there.

(I am trying to setup flymake targets for emacs which don't (re)compile
anything, but rather run the compilers with the compile time warning flags
and -syntax-only flags. Modules and dependency resolution in Fortran is the
main impediment here and if I can come up with a sane solution I may
implement it as a CMake module and share it with others.)
