Andreas Schwab added that dependency in 2007 to fix a problem back when
Emacs was managed under CVS and did not assume GNU Make. Please see
this thread:

I haven't looked at it carefully, but I wouldn't be surprised if the
dependency (or something like it) is still needed. I'll CC: Andreas to
give him a heads-up.
