I suggest you make it possible not to operate in --make mode. A build system usually wants to know which targets will be built by a command, but --make makes this hard. This is a significant problem in the java world (where javac always works in something like --make mode). Yes, you can blame it on dumb build tools, but the problem exists. Also, processing only one file is desirable for quick compile tests.
