    Thanks, tried that already and did not help. I better try from scratch because as I comment out the "depend" files the errors just seem to lead back right to the start. This was created without much thought many years ago off some model that may just be dead_on_arrival in 2008. I wonder if I really need to create that "Makefile.dependencies" file.

    I'm pretty sure there's something else going on here. "make" has existed since 20 years back. It has had some extensions added, but not in such a way that it should break old makefiles.

    When I try it on my machine (I just created empty files for your source files) it tries to do the right thing - it obviously fails when the source files are empty.

    Compilers can produce warnings - make the compiler programmers happy: Use them!
