No, I am not sure.  Perhaps I was confused by cases where an old
.depends file causes "make depend" to fail.

Still, I do regularly delete the entire OBJDIR, which is much quicker
than "make cleandir", and safer in the presence of makefile bugs that
cause "cleandir" to miss some files.

Yes, you are right.
