It seems to me you can get the desired functionality in the Makefiles using order-only dependencies -- just force some ordering of the targets.
Order dependencies are the wrong solution: for one thing, they don't allow for building just a single front end, which I do all the time. And rebuilding, say, the Fortran front end shouldn't mean that we then need to rebuild the Java front end as well.
