There didn't seem to be a good place to send suggestions, so I'm sending
it here (I guess I could consider missing functionality a bug :-{)

The Sun version of make uses a special target called ".KEEP_STATE:" to
automatically keep dependency information.  This is useful so that when
I change an include file (for example), all those files that include it
will get recompiled.  I couldn't find an equivalent function in GNU
Make.

I therefore request that if a new version of GNU Make is planned, that
it would be nice to have this type of feature in the next version.
