> Doesn't the old "config; cd; make dep all install" sequence work?

Traps for young players:  No this (sometimes) doesn't work.  You need
to do "make depend && make all", so that the second invocation of make
picks up the new dependencies calculated by "make depend".  Doing them
as one command (i.e. "make depend all") will sometimes result in odd
behaviour as the make will use the old dependencies for the whole make
run.

This is one area where gmake differs from BSD make - gmake will reread
any makefiles that are changed during the make run, so the "make depend
all" trick would work for projects built with gmake.
