Hello Basile,

A mere quick portability review:

You should output to a temporary file and mv that to the target.
That avoids incomplete (yet seemingly up to date) files when the
user aborts with CTRL-\.  See other targets that do similar.

The build compiler may not be gcc and may not understand -MT and -MMD.

Wasn't there a proposal to use depcomp in gcc a while ago?

mkdir -p is not portable, use $(mkinstalldirs).

Did you mean `echo ... ` here?  make will interpret $(echo ...) wrongly,
I think this command will do nothing.  Also, I think two spaces extra
indentation is normal in the GCC Makefile command lines.

"sed -q" is not portable, but "sed -n" is.  Also, your sed script looks
very weird.  Did you mean to use the 's' command?  If yes, you rely on
"$(srcdir)/config/" not containing any colons nor any other characters
special to sed.  You might want to use '|' as delimiter instead of ':'.

"cp -va" is not portable.  You can use cp -pR.

Likewise.
