The original question was trying to avoid recompiling everything generated from a tangle if the content didn't actually change. Because retangling the source rewrites /all/ of the files, and resets the dates, even if nothing has changed, make will then rebuild everything that was tangled, not just the partial set of tangled files that actually changed.
