	This is in fact an autotools uber-brokenness; James is it possible to
make jhbuild do a 'make clean' in ORBit2 before building it each time if
anything was updated ?

	Ultimately, it transpires that the makedepend dependencies are not used
at all for anything that includes several .h files in a _SOURCES line -
which is most of ORBit2.

	I used to be suprised by such mind-numbing autotools brokenness,
