I have built my Makefile system based on the ideas presented
in Peter Miller's paper: 

http://www.pcug.org.au/~millerp/rmch/recu-make-cons-harm.html

I'm pleased to have gotten this far :)

I read your page.  I am now (finally) building my dependencies
as described under 'Basic Auto-Dependencies', so that much of
the problem I have solved.  From your page, however, I now
understand that there is quite a bit more I can do for greater
efficiency.  My design goal is to be as efficient as possible-
-so I'll start looking at implementing the remedies you list.
