Only in broken makefiles.  I once fixed all makefiles used by makeworld
to work with `make -jLarge' without `make depend' in the NOSECURE case.
makeworld used to depend on this (at least in the -jLarge case) until
recent pessimisations in it (building dependencies slows it down by 10%).

cc_tools/Makefile too the most work to fix :-).  Most of the gunk is
required to make dependencies actually work.  Once you have correct
dependencies (less the ones generated by `make depend'), it is a small
step to make the `make depend' step optional.
