 * ah, but "make depend" is tricky -- "make depend all" uses the old
 * dependencies during the "make all", since "make depend" rewrites the
 * Makefile or the .depend file, and making a second target doesn't
 * re-read the Makefile or the .depend file (..or does it re-read the
 * ..depend file?).  That was why I suggested a seperate invocation of
 * make.

Ok...but didn't you already delete the old dependencies with a patch?
Well, it worked for me.  Maybe we can just remove "depend" from
ALL_TARGETS and forget about it (the FreeBSD ports are supposed to be
built all in one pass anyway).
