Not writing task dependencies is kind of a feature though, in a KISS way. One of the reasons I have been tending towards using stupid shell scripts is that its much easier to guarantee that everything is built correctly if you rebuild from scratch everytime. With make I often find myself dealing with bugs in the makefile due to forgetting to specify some dependency or things like that.
