Hi 

Very interesting patch series. I stumbled upon a couple of spelling
errors while looking through it, and have a question about the
hardcoded dependency list.

This seems a bit brittle, but I guess make's dependencies doesn't
change often. So it is probably not a big issue.

How does it break if a dependency is missing?
