I just checked in a change to enable auto-deps for the win32 build (bug 167442). This means that dependencies for a source file will be generated when the file is compiled instead of requiring a separate build phase. This is the same default that the unix & mac gmake builds use. On average, this will speed up depend builds. However, it will slowdown clobber-only builds as you will be unnecessarily doing the equivalent of a depend step. You can disable this feature and return to the manual dependency method by using --disable-auto-deps. With auto-deps enabled, it is safe to just use client.mk's build_all target, which enforces tier-level module dependencies (see bug 107302), in lieu of the alldep target. - cls
