BTW, why does this patch force objfiles.txt to be regenerated every time
any individual .o file is rebuilt?  Surely it need only depend on the
specific Makefile (and maybe Makefile.global).

I find the current behavior kind of annoying because the echo command
occupies more than a full window in some subdirectories (eg utils/adt),
making it necessary to scroll back to see whether one's recompile of a
couple of modified files generated any warnings.  If the dependencies
need to stay as they are, maybe we could avoid the annoyance by having
make not print the echo command.
