Hello,
There seems to be a bug in depcomp in fileutils-4.1. It generates
dependency files with two dependencies on the first line, for
instance lib/.deps/__fpending.Po :
__fpending.o : \
/afs/pdc.kth.se/src/packages/gnu/fileutils/fileutils-4.1/lib/__fpending.c
../config.h /afs/pdc.kth.se/src/packages/gnu/fileutils/fileutils-4.1/lib/__fpending.h
/usr/include/stdio.h /usr/include/standards.h /usr/include/va_list.h
/usr/include/sys/types.h /usr/include/sys/inttypes.h /usr/include/sys/m_types.h
/usr/include/sys/limits.h /usr/include/float.h
/afs/pdc.kth.se/src/packages/gnu/fileutils/fileutils-4.1/lib/__fpending.c :
...
Compilation works ok but "make check" fails on AIX (xlc 3.6.4.0). I
think it should fail under Irix (MIPSPro cc 7.3.1.1) as well but the
compiler happens to generate a line starting with # as the last line
in the dependency file so the bug is masked.
The following patch solved it for me :
diff -pu depcomp depcomp.patched

I apologise if I'm totally off-base, I'm not too good at this stuff.
