and you either have to pray that you have kept the list of .h files that are mentioned inside target.c and other .h files referenced recursively from within these .h files etc. I listed the compiler as a dependency too, and I should really have a pseudo-target somehow that depends on the nature of the command line because changing the command line affects the generated code. If you have an automaking compiler that will generate the list of .h files then that’s so, so much safer.

First of all, If we are talking about C files, D can import and compile them so you don't even need a Makefile! Now, if you need to compile C++ files and then either link or create a library (and link with it from the D project), then you can just run Dub in the end of the job in your make file! You can then have a variable called `DUB_FLAGS` in your Makefile and this is where the arguments that will be passed for the Dub will be. Will this be good enough for you?
