I wonder that this file has got an explicit check for its existence.

It does. However, I did notice that it was still needed to run 'make depend'. I fixed this in my branch. I expect to put it in the next release.

Therefore, I would actually be in favor of having the 'make clean'
remove all
.depend files.

Would it be useful to add the dependency "*.mli *.ml" to the build
target "depend"?

It would not help the toplevel depend much. What would help is to put a dependency of the toplevel ".depend" on the "version" file. This file is supposed to change with each release, thus if you get coccinelle releases via git, it would enforce a refresh of the toplevel '.depend' file. I'll consider this.
