One way to handle it is something like this:
%.h:
test ! -f "$@"
grep -rl "$@" *.d | xargs -r rm
@echo "==================================================="
@echo "Stale dependencies cleaned up. Please restart make."
@false
that is, if a stale .d file declares a dependency on a .h that no longer
exists, this rule tells make it can create the missing .h. But instead,
it looks for .d files with stale references to that header and deletes
them so they'll be regenerated with correct info on the next pass.
