It would be *really* cool if the Makefile dependencies actually worked. It's a very little known fact but if you are in an RCS or SCCS (and BK looks like SCCS to make) source tree and the files are not checked out, you can just say
make
and make will look for a makefile, if there isn't one but there is a SCCS/s.[Mm]akefile it will check it out, look at the dependencies and start checking those out and keep doing it to satisfy the target.
It's a really pleasant way to work, the "make clobber" target "cleans" all the source so it isn't checked out, the directory is nice and empty. This makes it easy to see stuff you still need to check in or think about. It's definitely an old timer way of working, I'm pretty sure that the original Unix was done this way but just because it is old doesn't mean it is bad. Opinions differ on that :)
Here's a make in a cleaned BK source tree:
