No, nothing like that is provided with GNU make.

I believe that makedepend is available as part of the X sources, or
perhaps it's broken out separately now. Try poking around on
ftp://ftp.x.org/.
You might also try searching for it, perhaps at Google or similar.
Sometimes it's also known as just "makedep".
And finally, note that many modern compilers have an option you can
specify which will cause the preprocessor stage to generated make-style
prerequisite definitions; with GCC, for example, the -M option (and many
variants) will do this.
