That’s from the start of this thread and I’m making use of it in the 
with-deps.ly file (and in parse-only.ly on the GNUmake_dependencies branch).  I 
don’t use it exactly as it was originally presented in that message because the

generating the list of prerequisites.

That’s a good point.  I’m carrying over some bad practices from the original 
Makefile example in the documentation and should clean that up as much as
