The idea sounds sensible to me, but not the place.  Wouldn't it
be more useful to implement this as a make option?  It seems to
me that make has all the necessary information (it has to check
all time stamps anyway), and that doing this here would be more
generic.

Assuming that Makefile is re-read after one of its included file
(here Makefile.order) has changed is a GNU Make idiom anyway.
