A new bug report on the BSD make's include syntax...  sounds like we're
pretty close.

Yep, that seems to have fixed it.

I'm sorry to report that BSD-style make still doesn't handle
dependencies correctly.  The BSD include syntax is:

        .include "file"
or
        .include <file>

configure tries:

        .include file

which doesn't work, so it just comments out the dependencies (which is
much better than not working at all, but not really what we want).
