Well, macrodef defines a task - and thus has no way to specify dependencies, just like "normal" tasks don't have either. I find it quite natural to keep the depends on the targets and use the macrodef'ed tasks just like normal tasks. Your example isn't that enlightening as you put your tasks into a common target anyway, so it is correct to say that the target depends on the prep target - much more so than saying the macro would, IMHO. Do you have a real world example of a macro that would benefit from stating target dependencies?
