In the case of update files,  the source depends on them.

Yes. But I would expect a CMS MAKE to know about cntrl and aux files
in some smart way. If I had to add each update file to the makefile
it's most likely getting the weakest chain in the thing. And you
realize that the makefile itself would also be subject to source
updates...

The control file also specifies the macro libraries that you use. I
would not trust myself specify the used macro's in the makefile. To
determine on which macro's a text deck depends, we'd need something
like the 'depend' pass of the gcc suite. Manual scanning of the source
is painful, so I was looking at using the ADATA output of HLASM for
it, but the information would be a bit late. You would assemble to
find out that you did not have to - the only advantage would be that
the change does not propagate any further than that.

I'm having similar problems with my plumbing that makes assembler
source into HTML pages with symbols being links to various places so I
am interested in useful ideas.
