Comment (by tobypeterson):

 From what I can tell, this makes some of the rules in the Makefile have
 additional dependencies, which could lead to files being regenerated.
 Given that the current behavior is the default, and doesn't seem to hurt
 anything, I'm not inclined to change it. Is this causing a problem for
 you?
