The makedepend command is missing from enterprise linux 5.3. Can someone clue me into where it may have gone?

I confirmed that I have it, then used rpm to find what package it's in and what it does. The first line of the description should serve as a warning!

Summary     : imake source code configuration and build system
Description :
Imake is a deprecated source code configuration and build system which
has traditionally been supplied by and used to build the X Window System
in X11R6 and previous releases.  As of the X Window System X11R7 release,
the X Window system has switched to using GNU autotools as the primary
build system, and the Imake system is now deprecated, and should not be
used by new software projects.  Software developers are encouraged to
migrate software to the GNU autotools system.
