I should note some of the bugs with the old 'mkdep' method that are
fixed by the FAST_DEPEND method, for world.
1. CXXFLAGS/CFLAGS are not passed properly from Makefile.inc1 for
external toolchain with gcc. A DEPFLAGS hack was added to address
this. The problem being that we pass CFLAGS via CC=3D"${CC} ${CFLAGS}"
from Makefile.inc1 rather than a CFLAGS_APPEND that mkdep can pick up.
2. CFLAGS=3D-include was ignored in mkdep until r294370.
3. Avoiding ccache for mkdep involves annoying hacks that broke
someone's build (unfixed)
4. ccache can't benefit from mkdep
5. Similar to -include, we only pass certain flags to mkdep which is a
maintenance problem.
6. It hides dependency problems due to 'requiring' running 'make
depend' before build. A goal with FAST_DEPEND is to not need this,
which has proven to be fine. DPSRCS was widely abused and fixed. It
should not even exist really, it's not needed.
