Great. :)

Right. But I have this dependency generated automatically as well:

hello_mod-hello_hello.o 
hello_mod-hello_hello.d : ../hello/hello.c ../include/grub/types.h config.h \
  include/grub/cpu/types.h ../include/grub/misc.h \
  /usr/lib/gcc/i586-mandriva-linux-gnu/4.0.1/include/stdarg.h \
  ../include/grub/symbol.h ../include/grub/err.h ../include/grub/mm.h \
  ../include/grub/dl.h ../include/grub/normal.h ../include/grub/setjmp.h \
  include/grub/cpu/setjmp.h ../include/grub/arg.h \
  ../include/grub/script.h ../include/grub/parser.h grub_script.tab.h

So the question is why you don't have it. Please look at the content of 
hello_mod-hello_hello.d.

Since it works for me, all I can say is "I don't know". Have you added 
hppa-ipl.rmk into RMKFILES in Makefile.in?
