Thanks.

Yeah. Unfortunately I failed to track the -M* rewrite closely enough
and a less-than-optimal (for automake) change went in to gcc and g++.
The code for gcj was written first and so didn't have the problem.
Converting gcj to use the generic dependency tracking infrastructure
has been on my to-do list for a long time, but it has never seemed
very important.
