Well obviously and thanks for fixing it; I don't have my
keys here or I'd done the same.  The behavior was IMHO
interesting nevertheless.  It looks like the .deps directory
wasn't created, whether due to the mixup or an automake
change is still unknown.

The behavior is IMHO unexpected as ./$(DEPDIR)/emmo.Pc is
the *last* included file in ld/Makefile, but a quick
experiment shows that this is indeed a GNU make quirk: the
error message has the last, not the first included file,
that's missing.

brgds, H-P
