Well, I don't really think I can take either of these choices. Can we not
enable dependencies by default and turn them off either by hand
[--disable-auto-dependencies], or better still if gcc is not detected?
If this is not acceptable, we should just build old-style .depend files.
As it stands there are no dependencies and the build system is broken.
