Probably I'm just showing my ignorance WRT C++ but somehow I had it in my head
that the no-.h header files were allowed to be pre-compiled or included in the
compiler (rather than being separate files) or similar.

If it's just another way to access the same old header files then as Philip
says it's just a matter of finding the right directories and adding them to
your makedepend invocation.
