I don't know if this works. 4) show how and why the dependency mechanism fails. The depcomp script from Automake is responsible for handling the mechanisms in conjunction with the am/compile.am Automake snippet. Maybe your compiler is sufficiently similar to one of the known dependency mechanisms so that it can be adapted. At least it should be adapted to recognize your compiler's failure to fulfill tru64 dependency style. That is, if your compiler is of any wider public interest. depcomp belongs to Automake, though, so this should be discussed on its mailing list.
