Thanks for your quick response, Ralf. On the first invocation, I get the following:
a.o: a/a.cc a.o: b/b.h a.o: ./c/a.h a.o: /opt/SUNWspro/prod/include/CC/std/stdio.h etc, i.e. a list of what I think I need. The errno was 0 after executing that sequence of commands. I got the same error you did when I executed the second CC invocation. What version of the compiler are you using, btw?

I only have access to a different compiler version. What does yours do after this series of commands (in a junk directory): mkdir a b c d cat >a/a.cc <<EOF #include "b.h" #include "c/a.h" #include <stdio.h> int x=0; EOF echo >b/b.h echo >c/a.h CC -Ib -I. -xM -c a/a.cc echo $? and what does it do with CC -Ib -I. -xM -c a/a.cc -o d/a.o echo $? ? Over here, the second one triggers the error | CC: Suffix mismatch between -o and produced file (should produce .i) which prevents the dashXmstdout depmode to work. I believe it's a compiler bug, but don't know for sure (have only looked very briefly at the documentation). However, on this system depmode=makedepend source=a/a.cc object=d/a.o libtool=no \ sh -x path/to/depcomp CC -Ib -I. -c a/a.cc -o d/a.o works. So, the question is whether `depcomp' needs to cut out any of your $CPPFLAGS or $CXXFLAGS which could make makedepend barf. Regards, Ralf
