[Omake] restricting the dependency search

[Jason Hickey]

Martin,

Have you tried using -P?  You still have to pay the initial startup  
time, but after that, whenever you modify a source file the rebuild  
should start almost immediately.

We've thought about the method you propose, but it would be hard to  
implement well (or, at least, it would require a lot of thought on  
how to do it).
