My experience on mailing-lists is that people not fully understand
that if you change an include-file you also should recompile the
C-file. To prevent makefiles from growing larger and unmaintainable,
gcc has the option to create dependancies automaticly. This text
informs people about the traps you could fall into if you're not
carefully maintaining your include-file dependancies and on how to
prevent this from happening.

How-To-Repeat:
