I agree with this.  But it would be 'make replace' that would have the
override, because that's where the bookkeeping is about what's dirty.
Or perhaps two kinds of dirty flags, unsafe_depends and safe_depends,
the latter for when an upgrade happened but the rules say it was ok.


Rough consensus seems positive, so I'll be committing the make replace
change shortly.
