Thanks for the investigation and clear write-up! This helped me fix
the bug (I think) quickly. Well, quickly by my schedule -- I know
you've been waiting a month now. Sorry about that.

We always try all the different modes. The mode names really are just
descriptive names for a particular style of dependency tracking. They
aren't meant to be limited to one compiler or another. For instance I
wish every vendor would adopt the `gcc3' style.

Cool.
If you're using the cvs automake please give it a shot. I checked in
the patch to fix your problem, but I have no easy way of trying it :-(
