: : gcc has a much more powerful feature.  In your Makefile, add the "-MD"
: : or "-MMD" options to gcc.  Then, add this at the end of your Makefile:
: : 	DEPS := $(wildcard *.d)
: : 	ifneq ($(DEPS),)
: : 	include $(DEPS)
: : 	endif
: : gcc will automatically generate dependencies as it compiles, and make
: : will automatically use any that gcc has generated.  This is much more
: : reliable than using makedepend.
: But requires you to run make twice to be sure everything is built.

Whoops, seems like I can't prove myself right! So I'll agree that ONE
run of make should be fine - and DJ solution is #1.
