  Is there any way of knowing which dependencies to a target were out of
date in the commands of a makefile rule?

  I was putting my hope to .OODATE and was surprised to find a "bug" in
make, until I realized that make does what make always did and that it was
the definition of .OODATE in make(1) that was incorrect.
