:How about "rm .depend"?  I'm inclined to suggest that .depend be
:removed by "make clean"...

I had this happen to me two days ago.  I union mount my obj directory
over my source directory and in that obj directory (or nearby) was a
isa_machdep.c and one other file.  When I killed those everything went
fine.  If you're obj build is outside your src, look for a spurious
isa_machdep.c - of course, .depend is definitely another possibly.
