makedepend is part of the imake package in Fedora. imake is - shall we
say - under a policy of malign neglect by upstream. Rightly so, in my
opinion, but makedepend is legitimately useful on its own.
I think the only semi-serious problem with teaching makedepend more
about gcc is what to do in the face of multiple gcc versions. We could
certainly make makedepend search %{_libdir}/gcc/`gcc -dumpmachine`/`gcc
-dumpversion`/include but that only works if you're building with gcc
and not say compat-gcc34. Maybe inherit $CC from the environment and
use that? Who knows.
Ideally you'd just use gccmakedep instead, but it doesn't support the
same set of options as makedepend so that may not be an option.
I'd take a patch, but that's about the extent to which I care about
being a build tools maintainer.
