gnumake on W32 - automatic prerequisites |

I am trying to get automatic prerequisites to work on Windows NT,
using Gnumake
version 3.79.1, and MSVC++ 7.x . I am using the compiler to produce a
preprocessor output file, and sed to reduce the dependencies listed
there into a valid makefile format, using the name convention
'whatever.d' . I wind up with a textural file like:
whatever.obj : \
whatever.h \
whaterver2.h \
I then include whatever.d in my makefile:
include whatever.d
which means that it is read by gnumake and incorporated into the make.
I know it is being read because if I purposefully mess up the format
of this included make file, the make dies with a correct error
diagnostic.
My problem is that the dependency relationship is apparently not being
recognized; If I touch whatever2.h, gnumake does not force a
re-compile of the whatever.obj dependent on that include file.
Anyone know what is going wrong here?
TIA...
