src/deps.mk

[Eli Zaretskii]

This file suffered some bitrot, because the latest changes were not
reflected there.  I fixed it (I think), see revno 103113, but I wonder
whether any supported platform actually uses that file.  (MS-DOS does,
but since its compiler is GCC, I can easily turn AUTO_DEPEND on for
it.)  If some platforms do use the file, we may wish to automate its
update with some maintainer rule.

configure.in says that it's used by all platforms
except for those that combine GNU Make, GCC, and
use autodepend.  So it would appear that a lot of
platforms use it, e.g., plain Solaris.

I asked because it seemed strange that no one reported any problems
with the obviously stale prerequisites.  I guess there aren't many
users of these systems who track the development trunk.
