I commented a bit on dependency generation at <http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2011-05/msg01925.html> - I think the incremental approach I suggested there is more likely to make useful progress than trying to do it again with a monolithic patch. Various cleanups would also be helpful for both automatic generation and maintainer-script updates of dependencies. -- Joseph S. Myers jos...@codesourcery.com
