AFAICT, this was not generated by the automake that corresponds to the
new m4/depend.m4.  The new version should have `#'s in the beginning
of the lines containing AMDEPBACKSLASH.  This should have been a
result of the new if/endif AMDEP rules in depend2.am.

However, I see the change that introduced AMDEP as a conditional has
removed the test for the existence of the depcomp script.  Hmm...
Perhaps this is not necessary, since this very script is used to
choose a dependency tracking mechanism, so we'd end up with `no' if it
doesn't exist.  Yeah, that makes sense...
