Although I'm a automake newbie, I am interested. I'd be grateful if you gave 
me those pointers.

This project has only f90 module dependencies, although I also have other 
older f77 projects that use include files, so I could test both. My idea was 
to program a Perl script that could find what source files contain which 
modules and then, in a second pass, write the dependencies of every file 
given the modules they use. At a later stage, that Perl script could be 
converted to a shell + sed script if it is needed.
